June 25, 200447 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 707
Summary
The Texas Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Appeals, holding that the evidence was legally sufficient to find that the Richland‑Chambers Reservoir caused a taking of the Gragg Ranch, that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in refusing to bifurcate the inverse‑condemnation and compensation phases, and that the jury’s compensation award was supported by sufficient evidence.
