1. United States v. Pewee Coal Co., No. 168, SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES, January 2-3, 1951, Argued , April 30, 1951, Decided
OVERVIEW: In a coal company's suit against the United States to recover compensation for a taking of property, the company was properly awarded judgment, but in less than the amount claimed, because the Government's seizure and operation of a mine was a taking of property and the amount of operating losses caused by the Government was just compensation.
