14-275 | 9th Cir. | Apr 22, 2015 | Jun 22, 2015 | 5-4 | Roberts | OT 2014 |
Holding: The Fifth Amendment requires the government to pay just compensation when it takes personal property, just as when it takes real property. In this case, any net proceeds the raisin growers receive from the sale of the reserve raisins goes to the amount of compensation they have received for that taking; it does not mean the raisins have not been appropriated for government use. Nor can the government make raisin growers relinquish their property without just compensation as a condition of selling their raisins in interstate commerce.
Judgment: Reversed, 5-4, in an opinion by Chief Justice Roberts on June 22, 2015. Justices Ginsburg, Breyer and Kagan join Chief Justice Roberts opinion as to Part I and II. Justice Thomas filed a concurring opinion. Justice Breyer filed an opinion concurring in part and dissenting in part, in which Justices Ginsburg and Kagan joined. Justice Sotomayor filed a dissenting opinion.

TEN new relists -- including 6 involving Pres. Trump/Trump Admin initiatives that strangely skipped the Jan. 15 conference: Emoluments Clause suits, Public Charge Rule, Title X abortion/counseling rule.
