9th Circuit: Mobilehome Rent Control Takings Claim Too Early Or Too Late, Take Your Pick

By Robert Thomas (inversecondemnation.com)

In Colony Cove Properties, LLC v. City of Carson, No. 09-57039 (Mar. 28, 2011), the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed the District Court's dismissal of a property owner's claim that the City of Carson's mobilehome rent control ordinance is a taking. The District Court dismissed the facial takings claim because it was filed outside the statute of limitations, and the as-applied takings challenge as unripe.

We'll review the opinion in detail to see if there is anything more worth posting about, or whether this is another one in the long series of Williamson County ripeness cases.
