One of the treasures of State N is the large pristine lake located at its center. In recent years, the lake has become increasingly polluted, a result of a substantial number of properties surrounding the lake being developed. Development leads to erosion and causes various toxic compounds to leach into the lake. The state has imposed a twelve-month moratorium on any construction to allow it to develop a comprehensive land-use plan for the area. Trayvon owns a parcel bordering the lake. If he cannot develop his parcel in the next few months, he will default on his mortgage and lose his property. If Trayvon sues State N claiming it has unconstitutionally taken his property, which is the likely result?

On June 1, Sara agreed to sell Greenacre to Bart for the price of one million dollars, payable in cash. The standard real estate sales contract contained the following provision: “Seller agrees to keep the home upon said real estate insured against fire at a reputable insurance company in the sum of one million dollars.” To complete the transaction, Bart and Sara enlisted the assistance of Escrow Company. The closing day of the escrow was identified as June 30.  On June 15, Sara had a property inspection by her contractor. Among other things, the contractor advised her the electric wiring was substandard as well as the gas lines were also of inferior grade and should be replaced immediately in order to avoid a fire hazard.   On June 27, Sara delivered into escrow a signed deed with an instruction to escrow that it shall not close the escrow until escrow was in possession of the one million dollar purchase price.  On June 28, Bart wire transferred one million dollars to escrow.   On June 29, escrow was prepared to close the next day. On that same day, Bart and Sara were at Greenacre in the house for Sara’s final inspection of the property.  Unbeknownst to them, gas had been leaking from the gas line to the water heater.  When Bart went to light his cigarette, the house blew up, killing Sara and Bart.  The entire house was destroyed.   The insurance company is ready, willing and able to pay the insurance proceeds in the amount of one million dollars.   Once the real estate contract was executed, what interest(s) did each party have in Greenacre, if any?   Which party’s Estate is entitled to the insurance proceeds and why? Assume for purposes of this prompt that Sara’s estate still owns the legal title to Greenacre because the closing did not happen before her death.  Sara’s Will provides that all of her real property is to go to her son, Trent, while directing that her personal property goes to her other son, Victor.  Which of the sons now owns Greenacre and/or is entitled the proceeds of the sale and why?
