The Supreme Court ruled unanimously on June 23 in Pung v. Isabella County that Isabella County, Michigan, did not violate the Takings Clause when it seized and auctioned Timothy Pung's home over an alleged $2,200 tax debt, retaining only that amount from the $76,000 proceeds before transferring the remainder to the estate. The decision follows the 2023 Tyler v. Hennepin County precedent and was authored by Justice Alito with a concurrence by Justice Thomas joined by Justice Gorsuch. All verified facts derive from two right-center sources.
