Subject
Several successive expropriations affected parcels owned by the plaintiff, producing residual parcels. The situation requires identifying which expropriation produced each residue and assessing whether those residues remain usable under the parcels' original layout rules.
Summary
Experts should specify from which expropriation each residual parcel resulted and whether it can be used. If contiguous parcels are merged, experts must examine whether the original parcel layout prevents use and whether the area taken in the latest expropriation directly caused the inability to use the plaintiff's parcels. Accordingly, the appellate court should have ordered a subsequent expert report addressing these issues.
Practical significance
A follow-up expert report supplies technical findings necessary to determine applicability of original layout rules to the residues and to attribute the cause of any loss of usability when plots are unified. This is an educational summary only and does not constitute judicial text or legal advice.
