Live Blog of Texas Beach "Rolling Easement" Case

Today, April 19, 2011, the Texas Supreme Court heard oral argument on rehearing in a case styled Severance v. Patterson, No. 09-0378 (Nov. 5, 2010), in which the court originally held 6-2 (with Chief Justice Wallace Jefferson recused) that Texas does not recognize a "rolling" public beachfront access easement, without proof of prescription (on certified question from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit).

Along with our Damon Key colleague Robert Thomas at www.inversecondemnation.com, we lived blogged the oral argument.
