NCDOT took a portion of this convenience store property for a road widening project in Lee County, North Carolina. The government’s initial offer for the North Carolina property taken by eminent domain was $3,120.00. During pre-trial hearings, the court ruled that the NCDOT could not establish the existence of some of its claimed existing right-of-way. The case proceeded through trial with the jury returning a verdict of $126,081.47 plus interest and costs.
