Professor Vanessa Casado Perez Professor Vanessa Casado Perez of the Texas A&M School of Law in Fort Worth, Texas joins us to discuss water law and how it intersects with the eminent domain world.  We discuss the differing legal systems applicable to water in U.S., the Owens Valley California Water Wars, the Tulare Lake Basin Water Storage District case, the Casitas Municipal Water District Case, and the Edwards Aquifer Authority v. Day case.  Professor Casado Perez also gave some great movie recommendations (including Chinatown), suggests that Penelope Cruz would be play her in the future movie about her life, and discusses the Fort Worth art museums.
