I can gues how the 5-4 split went. Ginsberg, O'Connor, Souter, Stevens, Breyer on the side of allowing property to be seized for economic development and Rhenquist, Thomas, Kennedy, and Scalia against.

Rhenquist (80) will be the next to retire and them probably Stevens (85).

Wrong.

Kennedy was for taking the property.

O'Conner wrote a stinging dissent in favor of private property rights.
