      "title": "Property Rights \"Takings\": Justice O'Connor's Opinions",
      "summary": "When Justice O\u2019Connor ascended to the Supreme Court, expectations were that she\nwould adhere\nto the conservative line and generally uphold the property rights position over the\ngovernment\u2019s in\nFifth Amendment \u201ctakings\u201d cases. This did not happen. Instead, in this area as well\nas others, she\nestablished her place at the Court\u2019s ideological center. To be sure, Justice O\u2019Connor\nmade many\narguments favoring property owners, in both her opinions and her concurrences and dissents. But\nthis asserted empathy for the property owner did not translate into espousal of bold doctrinal shifts\nin takings law. Rather she preferred an ad hoc case-by-case approach, as embodied in the  Penn\nCentral  test for regulatory takings, whose current dominance she helped to establish. The\nremainder\nof the report reviews her takings-related writings for the Court.",
