The Illinois Department of Conservation (IDOC) instituted an action in 1982 to exercise its right of eminent domain over 13 subdivided lots owned by the defendants, Edward and Ann Twarog, Steven and Dorothy Dorner, and Wanda Miles (referred to collectively as the owners). After a trial to determine the value of the lots, a jury returned a verdict establishing the value at $5,450 per lot, a value within the range of values testified to during the trial. The owners appeal, arguing that the trial court improperly ruled on several motions in limine. For the reasons below, we affirm.
