19-1414 UNITED STATES V. COOLEY

DECISION BELOW: 919 F.3d 1135

ORDER OF MARCH 19, 2021

ERIC R. HENKEL, ESQUIRE, OF MISSOULA, MONTANA, IS APPOINTED TO SERVE

AS COUNSEL FOR RESPONDENT IN THIS CASE.

CERT. GRANTED 11/20/2020

QUESTION PRESENTED:

Whether the lower courts erred in suppressing evidence on the theory that a police

officer of an Indian tribe lacked authority to temporarily detain and search respondent, a nonIndian, on a public right-of-way within a reservation based on a potential violation of state or

federal law.

20-107 CEDAR POINT NURSERY V. HASSID

DECISION BELOW: 923 F.3d 524

CERT. GRANTED 11/13/2020

QUESTION PRESENTED:

California law forces agricultural businesses to allow labor organizers onto their

property three times a day for 120 days each year. The regulation provides no

mechanism for compensation. A divided panel below held that, although the regulation

takes an uncompensated easement, it does not effect a per se physical taking of

private property because it does not allow "24 hours a day, 365 days a year" occupation.

As an eight-judge dissent from denial of rehearing en bane noted, the panel "decision

not only contradicts Supreme Court precedent but also causes a conflict split."

The question presented is whether the uncompensated appropriation of an

easement that is limited in time effects a per se physical taking under the Fifth

Amendment.
