Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the trial court erred in admitting the condemnee’s subdivision development appraisal as evidence of market value and reversed the appellate court’s judgment, remanding for further proceedings. Justice Baker filed a concurring opinion, disagreeing with the majority’s suggestion that the method might be permissible in some cases.
