1Opinion of the CourtGorman, J.

[¶ 1] Terrence E. Pinkham appeals from a judgment entered by the Superior Court (Hancock County, R. Murray, J.) after a jury trial, awarding him $41,500 as just compensation for the Maine Department of Transportation’s (the MDOT) taking of a portion of his property by eminent domain for a road improvement project. 1 Pinkham contends that the court erred by ruling that the MDOT was not required to provide in discovery those portions of its appraiser’s report appraising other properties taken for the project pursuant to 23 M.R.S. § 63 (2015). We agree, and vacate the judgment.
