Beachfront ruling returns case to state court
The U S Supreme Court says the Beachfront Management Act may not itself be illegal but requires the South Carolina Supreme Court to decide if Isle of Palms resident Lucas should be compensated. Justices note denial of all economic use must rest on specific legal justifications, not mere public interest. The case centers on eroding shoreline and a prior award of 2.1 million to Lucas being reversed locally.
