[Non-Sequitur]

Connecticut has legislation on the books that defines the seizure of private property for development by a private contractor as 'public use'. New Hampshire has no such law. In fact, there has never been a case of private property condemned under eminent domain for private use in the state's history. This will not be the first one.

If NH failed to pass a law defining "public", and instead relies on working in their state constitution, this could well be the FIRST such condemnation in the state.

In any case, it should be legally ruinously expensive for Souter.
