: inversecondemnationMore on Amicus Brief of 29 States in Ceded Lands Case
By Robert Thomas (inversecondemnation.com)
Today's Honolulu Star-Bulletin reports "29 other state oppose ruling on ceded lands," about the amicus brief filed by the State of Washington and 28 other states urging the US Supreme Court to review the decision of the Hawaii Supreme Court in Office of Hawaiian Affairs v. Housing and Community Dev. Corp. of Hawaii, 117 Haw. 174, 177 P.3d 884 (Jan. 31, 2008). In that decision, the Hawaii Supreme Court, relying on Congress' "Apology Resolution," enjoined the State of Hawaii from conveying 1.2 million acres of state-owned land until a political settlement is reached with Native Hawaiians about the status of that land.
More about the case here (including links to the cert petition and other amicus briefs).
