New brief filed in Iron Bar Holdings, LLC v. Bradley H. Cape

The Claremont Institute ([link removed] )

Dear Friend,

Claremont's Center for Constitutional Jurisprudence ([link removed] ) , headed by Dr. John Eastman, has taken a stand in the U.S. Supreme Court to defend one of America’s most fundamental freedoms: private property rights.

CCJ filed an amicus curiae brief in Iron Bar Holdings, LLC v. Bradley H. Cape, a case at the center of a practice known as “corner crossing,” where the public traverses private land when moving between public parcels without permission. At issue is whether private landowners can be compelled to allow public access to their property without due process or just compensation.

This is more than a technical legal fight. It is about whether the government can erode property rights and effectively take land without paying for it. If allowed to stand, the lower court’s ruling would undermine the Fifth Amendment’s Takings Clause and create sweeping new easements across private property nationwide.
