What is the test for just compensation in an eminent domain proceeding?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Redevelopment Agency v. First Christian Chruch, 140 Cal.App.3d 690, 189 Cal.Rptr. 749 (Cal. App. 1983):
The ultimate goal in any eminent domain proceeding is of course to determine constitutionally required "just compensation." That compensation is to be measured by what the owner lost and not what the condemnor has gained. (People v. La Macchia (1953) 41 Cal.2d 738, 264 P.2d 15.)
