Bullard Independent School District v. Brown

How later courts describe this case

• holding vested right arises when claimant complies fully with procedures set forth in federal mining laws for obtaining patents
• refusing to find gilding where indictment was for perjury arising out of alleged false testimony to grand jury in connection with earlier counterfeit complaint
• the vesting of title is neutral vis-a-vis the NHPA and therefore compliance is not a defense to condemnation
• “[A]ny expectation of ‘family’ continuity or permanency based upon the provisional foster family license ... was totally unreasonable.”
• statutorily mandated compliance with National Historic Preservation Act does not limit eminent domain power
• Sawtooth National Recreation Area Act
