EMINENT DOMAIN - WYOMING

Bush Land Development Company v. Crook County Weed & Pest Control District

Supreme Court of Wyoming - February 3, 2017 - P.3d - 2017 WL 474103 - 2017 WY 12

Landowner brought action against weed and pest control district for inverse condemnation under the Eminent Domain Act, alleging that it was entitled to just compensation for the loss of trees on its property as a result of the district’s improper application of herbicides.

The District Court dismissed action. Landowner appealed.

The Supreme Court of Wyoming held that landowner did not pursue statutory administrative remedy available to a landowner whose property was damaged as a result of a weed and pest district carrying out its requirements, and thus action was required to be dismissed for failure to exhaust administrative remedies.
