Ah, COVID. Does anyone remember life before it? It has certainly shaken up the legal system. Today's column deals with COVID-19's impact on the rental housing market. More precisely, it deals with the interaction of regulations of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Constitution's prohibition on taking property for public use without just compensation. (This is, after all, a column on takings law, remember?)
