Developer Wants To Seize Supreme Court Justice's Home


Home Would Be Replaced With 'Lost Liberty' Hotel


POSTED: 9:52 am CDT June 29, 2005

WEARE, N.H. -- Following a Supreme Court ruling giving local governments power to seize private property, a California man has suggested taking over Justice David Souter's New Hampshire farmhouse and turning it into a hotel.



Souter, a longtime Weare resident, joined in the 5-4 court decision allowing governments to seize private property from one owner and turn it over to another if doing so would benefit a community.


In a letter faxed to town officials Tuesday, Logan Darrow Clements said that a hotel on Souter's property would bring the town economic development and tax revenue.

Souter could not be reached for comment.

Charles Meany, Weare's code enforcement officer, said he is taking the matter seriously. So are police, who posted officers outside Souter's home as a precaution Tuesday.
