Moerman v. State
California Court of Appeal
1Opinion of the Court
Opinion
DOSSEE, J.—Plaintiff
Robin R. Moerman alleged the state had damaged his property by relocating tule elk which were destroying his fences and eating the forage intended for his livestock. The trial court granted the state’s motion for summary judgment. On appeal, Moerman contends the trial court erred, and that as a matter of law, there has been a taking of his property.
We find the tule elk are not instrumentalities of the state nor controlled by the state, and, therefore, there has been no physical taking of Moerman’s property. We will not consider Moerman’s regulatory taking argument…
