Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! In today's episode from our "Listen and Learn" series, we tackle the topic of regulatory takings, which is often tested in crossover essay questions that cover both Property and Constitutional Law issues.

In this episode, we discuss:

• What constitutes a "taking"?
• Possessory and regulatory takings
• Distinguishing between the two types of regulatory takings
• The Lucas v. South Carolina Coastal Council case
• The three Penn Central factors, derived from the case Penn Central Transportation Co. v. New York City
• The "denominator problem"
• Analyzing two hypos involving regulatory takings
• How to organize your answer when the question provides a list of claims by separate parties
