DeVillier v. Texas
2024 United States Supreme Court case / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
DeVillier v. Texas, (Docket No. 22-913), was a case that the Supreme Court of the United States decided on April 16, 2024.[1][2] The case dealt with the Supreme Court's takings clause jurisprudence. Because the case touched on whether or not the 5th Amendment is self-executing, the case had implications for Trump v. Anderson and whether or not section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution is self-executing,[3][4] though ultimately the Anderson decision was announced before DeVillier. The Court heard oral argument on January 16, 2024.[1]
