@Paul ıōıħįòìċıþ: Tyler v. Hennepin County (2023) U.S. Supreme Court – decided May 25, 2023 This case is the reason people are now saying: “If the government took your home over unpaid property taxes, they may owe you money back.” ⸻ ✅ What the Supreme Court Ruled (Plain English) The Supreme Court ruled that when the government takes someone’s property for unpaid taxes, the government cannot keep extra money beyond what the person owed. So if: •You owe $10,000 in property taxes •The county takes your home •The county sells your home for $100,000 •The county keeps the whole $100,000 The Supreme Court said: That is unconstitutional. The county can keep: ✅ what you owed (taxes, fees, penalties) But the county must return: ✅ the remaining equity (the leftover money) ⸻ 🏛️What Constitutional Right Was Violated? The Supreme Court ruled this practice violates the: Fifth Amendment – Takings Clause The government cannot take private property without just compensation. Keeping the homeowner’s leftover equity is considered an illegal taking. ⸻ 🔥 What Was the Situation in the Case? The homeowner was an elderly woman named Geraldine Tyler She owed around $15,000 in unpaid property taxes. Hennepin County (Minnesota) seized her condo and sold it. The condo sold for about $40,000. The county kept the entire $40,000. Tyler got: ❌ $0 The Supreme Court said: That extra money belonged to HER, not the county. ⸻ ⚖️Was the Supreme Court Decision Unanimous? YES — it was 9–0. Every justice agreed. That
