106. Professor Jessica Asbridge on Private Delegations of the Eminent Domain Power

Professor Jessica Asbridge of Baylor Law joins the podcast to discuss her upcoming law review article addressing the private delegation of the eminent domain power.  We have an insightful conversation that concerns the law and policy around private companies, such as pipelines, that exercise the eminent domain power, why that exercise is often subject to scant regulation, and the effect of that lack of oversight.  Professor Asbridge also suggests language from, of all places, the Kelo decision that might be helpful in considering a private entity's right to take property.   Professor Asbridge's article   Please share your thoughts on the show or this episode with me.
