Steve Snyder, et al. v. Village of Luckey, Ohio

Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, No. 24-3530 · judgment November 24, 2025


Certiorari denied · October 5, 2026
Pre-decision estimate: 4% cert probability

Before the decision, roughly the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for a circuit split argued in the petition, a dissent in the court below, and a Sixth Circuit decision below, and down for a state or local-government respondent.

Questions presented

In addition to the reversal of the November 24, 2025, Judgment of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, the questions for which Petitioners seek certiorari are as follows:

  1. Whether this Court’s Opinion in Knick, supra, permits a federal cause of action against a municipal entity for an uncompensated physical taking when the municipal entity has materially impaired the value and precluded the alienability of the Petitioners’ property.

  2. Whether the actions of the Village in singling out the Petitioners’ property and engaging in concerted actions to prevent its sale at auction are sufficient to state a claim for violation of Petitioners’ rights to due process and equal protection under the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution.
