In a landmark decision, the North Carolina Supreme Court has resolved a crucial land dispute involving landowner Elizabeth Mata. The court ruled that the state’s long-standing restrictions on her property, stemming from a proposed highway project, constituted indefinite takings. This ruling mandates proper compensation under eminent domain principles. The determination of the exact compensation will now be delegated back to trial courts, marking an essential step in the legal proceedings.
