Today the Supreme Court spoke out for the individual and affirmed that individuals have property rights that cannot be trampled by roughshod agencies like the EPA. Hooray!
See the SCOTUS ruling here: SACKETT+VICTORY
See the PLF posting: Sackett's Case
The verdict was unanimous, and J. Alito and J. Ginsburg wrote concurrences. J. Alito's was particularly strong, to wit, "The position taken in this case by the Federal Government - a position that the Court now squarely rejects - would have put the property rights of ordinary Americans entirely at the mercy of Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) employees."
