California Eminent Domain Law Update:

LACMTA v. APMI, No. S188128
In an appeal from a judgment of the court of appeals concerning the scope of the waiver provisions of California's "quick-take" eminent domain procedure,  judgment is reversed because if a lender holding a lien on condemned property applies to withdraw a portion of a deposit, and the property owner does not object to the application, the lender's withdrawal does not constitute a waiver of the property owner's claims and defenses under Section 1255.260.
