|
|
1. In case land, or other property, is sought to be appropriated
by any road, railroad, street railway, telephone, telegraph or any
electrical corporation organized for the manufacture or transmission of
electric current for light, heat or power, including the construction,
when that is the case, of necessary dams and appurtenant canals, flumes,
tunnels and tailraces and including the erection, when that is the case,
of necessary electric steam powerhouses, hydroelectric powerhouses and
electric substations or any oil, pipeline or gas corporation engaged in
the business of transporting or carrying oil, liquid fertilizer
solutions, or gas by means of pipes or pipelines laid underneath the
surface of the ground, or other corporation created under the laws of
this state for public use, and such corporation and the owners cannot
agree upon the proper compensation to be paid, or in the case the owner
is incapable of contracting, be unknown, or be a nonresident of the
state, such corporation may apply to the circuit court of the county of
this state where such land or any part thereof lies by petition setting
forth the general directions in which it is desired to construct its
road, railroad, street railway, telephone, or telegraph line or electric
line, including, when that is the case, the construction and maintenance
of necessary dams and appurtenant canals, tunnels, flumes and tailraces
and, when that is the case, the appropriation of land submerged by the
construction of such dam, and including the erection and maintenance,
when that is the case, of necessary electric steam powerhouses,
hydroelectric powerhouses and electric substations, or oil, pipeline,
liquid fertilizer solution pipeline, or gas line over or underneath the
surface of such lands, a description of the real estate, or other
property, which the company seeks to acquire; the names of the owners
thereof, if known; or if unknown, a pertinent description of the property
whose owners are unknown and praying the appointment of three
disinterested residents of the county, as commissioners, or a jury, to
assess the damages which such owners may severally sustain in consequence
of the establishment, erection and maintenance of such road, railroad,
street railway, telephone, telegraph line, or electrical line including
damages from the construction and maintenance of necessary dams and the
condemnation of land submerged thereby, and the construction and
maintenance of appurtenant canals, flumes, tunnels and tailraces and the
erection and maintenance of necessary electric steam powerhouses,
hydroelectric powerhouses and electric substations, or oil, pipeline, or
gas line over or underneath the surface of such lands; to which petition
the owners of any or all as the plaintiff may elect of such parcels as
lie within the county or circuit may be made parties defendant by names
if the names are known, and by the description of the unknown owners of
the land therein described if their names are unknown.
2. If the proceedings seek to affect the lands of persons under
conservatorship, the conservators must be made parties defendant. If the
present owner of any land to be affected has less estate than a fee, the
person having the next vested estate in remainder may at the option of
the petitioners be made party defendant; but if such remaindermen are not
made parties, their interest shall not be bound by the proceedings.
3. It shall not be necessary to make any persons party defendants in
respect to their ownership unless they are either in actual possession of
the premises to be affected claiming title or having a title of the
premises appearing of record upon the proper records of the county.
4. Except as provided in subsection 5 of this section, nothing in this
chapter shall be construed to give a public utility, as defined in
section 386.020, RSMo, or a rural electric cooperative, as provided in
chapter 394, RSMo, the power to condemn property which is currently used
by another provider of public utility service, including a municipality
or a special purpose district, when such property is used or useful in
providing utility services, if the public utility or cooperative seeking
to condemn such property, directly or indirectly, will use or proposes to
use the property for the same purpose, or a purpose substantially similar
to the purpose that the property is being used by the provider of the
public utility service.
5. A public utility or a rural electric cooperative may only condemn the
property of another provider of public utility service, even if the
property is used or useful in providing utility services by such
provider, if the condemnation is necessary for the public purpose of
acquiring a nonexclusive easement or right-of-way across the property of
such provider and only if the acquisition will not materially impair or
interfere with the current use of such property by the utility or
cooperative and will not prevent or materially impair such provider of
public utility service from any future expansion of its facilities on
such property.
6. If a public utility or rural electric cooperative seeks to condemn the
property of another provider of public utility service, and the
conditions in subsection 4 of this section do not apply, this section
does not limit the condemnation powers otherwise possessed by such public
utility or rural electric cooperative. (RSMo 1939 § 1504, A.L. 1978 H.B.
1634, A.L. 1983 S.B. 44 & 45 merged with S.B. 144, A.L. 1990 H.B. 1070,
A.L. 1994 S.B. 709)
Prior revisions: 1929 § 1430; 1919 § 1791; 1909 § 2360
(1971) Petition of electric company seeking to condemn easement for
transmission line held fatally defective for failure to join owner of fee
as defendant even though lessee of property was made party defendant and
easement sought was only for period of unexpired term of lease. Union
Electric Company v. Slay Bulk Terminals, Inc. (A.), 475 S.W.2d 136.
(1972) Condemnation properly denied where evidence was insufficient to
show Commission and owner could not agree upon compensation since
purported written offer contained language "We are now in a position to
make an offer," "Subject to the approval of the State Highway Commission,
our offer is. . . ." State ex rel. State Highway Commission v. Pinkley
(A.), 474 S.W.2d 46.
(1976) Held, in inverse condemnation suit venue is in county where all or
part of land is located and not where principal office of highway
commission is located. State ex rel. State Highway Commission v. Swink
(Mo.), 537 S.W.2d 556.
(1981) Power of eminent domain includes right to survey in anticipation
of and preparation for condemnation. State ex. rel. Rhodes v. Crouch
(Mo.), 621 S.W.2d 47.
(1989) To satisfy the requirements of this section, the condemnors'
evidence must show that a valid offer was made and rejected. (Mo.App.)
Mo. Hwy. & Transp. Com'n v. Pinnell, 774 S.W.2d 528.
Any number of owners, residents in the same county or circuit,
may be joined in one petition, and the damages to each shall be
separately assessed by the same commissioners. (RSMo 1939 § 1507)
Prior revisions: 1929 § 1343; 1919 § 1794; 1909 § 2363
Upon the filing of the petition, a summons shall be issued,
giving such owner at least ten days' notice of the time when said
petition will be heard, which summons shall be served by the sheriff of
the county, in the same manner as writs of summons are or may be by law
required to be served. If the name or residence of the owner is unknown,
or if the owners, or any of them, do not reside within the state, notice
of the time of hearing the petition, reciting the substance of the
petition and the day fixed for the hearing thereof, shall be given by
publication once each week for three consecutive weeks prior to the time
of hearing the petition, in a newspaper published in the county in which
the proceedings are pending, if one is published in the county, or if no
newspaper is published in the county, or the publisher shall refuse to
publish the same on tender of his usual charges for advertising, then by
posting up said notice for three consecutive weeks at the door of the
courthouse of the county wherein the lands or any portion of them lie.
(RSMo 1939 § 1505, A.L. 1957 p. 747)
Prior revisions: 1929 § 1341; 1919 § 1792; 1909 § 2361
(1954) Whether a defendant was a nonresident of the state so as to
authorize service by publication is a question of fact and where verified
averment of nonresidence was made, and there was no evidence that he was
resident, service by publication held valid. State ex rel. Fugatt v.
Hawkins, 241 A. 640, 264 S.W.2d 387.
The court, or judge thereof in vacation, on being satisfied that
due notice of the pendency of the petition has been given, shall appoint
three disinterested commissioners, who shall be residents of the county
in which the real estate or a part thereof is situated, to assess the
damages which the owners may severally sustain by reason of such
appropriation, who, after having viewed the property, shall return to the
clerk of such court, under oath, their report in duplicate, of such
assessment of damages, setting forth the amount of damages allowed to the
person or persons named as owning or claiming the tract of land
condemned, and should more than one tract be condemned in the petition,
then the damages allowed to the owner, owners, claimant or claimants of
each tract, respectively, shall be stated separately, together with a
specific description of the tracts for which such damages are assessed;
and the clerk shall file one copy of said report in his office and record
the same in the order book of the court, and he shall deliver the other
copy, duly certified by him, to the recorder of deeds of the county where
the land lies (or to the recorder of deeds of the city of St. Louis, if
the land lies in said city) who shall record the same in his office, and
index each tract separately as provided in section 59.440, RSMo, and the
fee for so recording shall be taxed by the clerk as costs in the
proceedings; and thereupon such company shall pay to the clerk the amount
thus assessed for the party in whose favor such damages have been
assessed; and on making such payment it shall be lawful for such company
to hold the interest in the property so appropriated for the uses
prescribed in this section; and upon failure to pay the assessment, the
court may, upon motion and notice by the party entitled to such damages,
enforce the payment of the same by execution, unless the said company
shall, within ten days from the return of such assessment, elect to
abandon the proposed appropriation of any parcel of land, by an
instrument in writing to that effect, to be filed with the clerk of the
court, and entered on the minutes of the court, and as to so much as is
thus abandoned, the assessment of damages shall be void. (RSMo 1939 §
1506, A.L. 1945 p. 645, A.L. 1990 H.B. 1070)
Prior revisions: 1929 § 1342; 1919 § 1793; 1909 § 2362
(1973) St. Louis county charter provisions as to appointment of
condemnation appraisers held to supersede provisions of general
condemnation statutes. State ex rel. St. Louis County v. Campbell (A.),
498 S.W.2d 833.
If, within thirty days after the filing of any condemnation
commissioners' report under the provisions of section 523.040, the
condemnor shall have neither paid the amount of the commissioners' award
to the persons named in the petition as owning or claiming any property
or rights or to the clerk of the court for such named persons nor timely
filed its written election to abandon the proposed appropriation of said
property or rights, then interest on the amount of any subsequent verdict
for said named persons, or if there be no such verdict, then on the
amount of the award, at the rate of six percent per annum from the date
of filing the report shall be added to said verdict or award and paid to
said named person or to the clerk for them. If, within thirty days after
the filing of any such commissioners' report the condemnor shall have
paid the amount of any commissioners' award to the persons named in the
petition as owning or claiming any property or rights or to the clerk of
the court for them and the amount of such award shall be superseded by a
subsequent verdict or amount larger than the award paid, then interest on
the amount by which such verdict exceeds the award, at the rate of six
percent per annum from the date of filing the report, shall be added to
the amount of the verdict; but if the amount of the award shall be
superseded by a subsequent verdict or amount smaller than the award paid,
then judgment shall be entered against said persons named to repay to
condemnor the amount by which the award paid exceeds the amount of the
verdict, with six percent interest on such excess payment from the date
of the payment of the award. If, within thirty days after the filing of
any such commissioners' report, the condemnor shall have neither paid the
amount of the award to said persons or to the clerk for them nor filed
its written election to abandon the appropriation, but shall thereafter
timely file such written election to abandon, then the court may, upon
motion filed by said persons within ten days after the filing of said
election, assess against the condemnor six percent interest on the amount
of the award from the date of the filing of the commissioners' report to
the date of the filing of such election, enter judgment thereon and
enforce payment thereof by execution or other appropriate proceeding. (L.
1959 S.B. 248)
(1974) Award of interest on amount of commissioners' award where
condemnation was abandoned held proper. Constitutionality of section
upheld. Missouri State Park Board v. McDaniel (Mo.), 513 S.W.2d 447.
1. Upon the filing of such report of the commissioners, the
clerk of the court in which the same is filed shall duly notify the party
whose property is affected of the filing; and the report of the
commissioners may be reviewed by the court in which the proceedings are
had, on written exceptions, filed by either party in the clerk's office,
within thirty days after the service of such notice; and the court shall
make such order as right and justice may require, and may order a new
appraisement, upon good cause shown.
2. Such new appraisement shall, at the request of either party, be made
by a jury, under the supervision of the court, as in ordinary cases of
inquiry of damages; but notwithstanding such exceptions, such company may
proceed to erect such telephone or telegraph line, or construct such road
or railroad; and any subsequent proceedings shall only affect the amount
of compensation to be allowed. In all cases arising under the provisions
of this chapter, the report of commissioners, when signed by a majority
of them, shall be taken and considered as the report of all.
3. If after ninety days after the award is paid into court no agreement
has been filed and no party having an interest in the award has filed a
distribution motion, the court shall determine the percentage of the
award to which each party having an interest in it is entitled. (RSMo
1939 § 1508, A.L. 2003 H.B. 668, A.L. 2005 H.B. 567)
Prior revisions: 1929 § 1344; 1919 § 1795; 1909 § 2364
(1973) Held in condemnation proceeding that state highway comm. as
condemnor is not obligated to present evidence from all appraisers which
it may have employed nor is it obligated to call all such appraisers as
witnesses at a trial in which damages are the issue. State ex rel. State
Highway Comm. v. Texaco, Inc. (Mo.), 502 S.W.2d 284.
1. Within thirty days after the commissioners' award has been
paid to the clerk of the court, where there is more than one defendant,
those defendants claiming a determinable interest in the proceeds of said
award may file with the court an agreement setting out the manner and the
percentages in which said award is to be divided among them. If no such
agreement is filed during said thirty-day period, any defendant claiming
such an interest may by motion for distribution petition the court in
which said cause is pending for a determination of the percentage of the
commissioners' award to which each of said parties is entitled; provided,
that the plaintiff in said condemnation action may have the right to
intervene as an interested party in said proceeding, whether it be by the
filing of an agreement among the defendants or by the filing of a motion
for distribution of the award, and shall be entitled to prior notice of
the filing of said agreement or notice of the filing of the motion for
said determination and distribution.
2. Within thirty days after the filing of such motion, the court having
jurisdiction of said cause shall determine the percentage of the award to
which each party having an interest therein is entitled. Any party
aggrieved of the determination of interests made by the court shall have
the right of appeal therefrom, and the same shall be considered as a
final judgment for such purposes.
3. The respective interests of all parties in the award made as a result
of the condemnation action, whether determined by said agreement or by
the court, shall be final and shall extend by percentage to any
additional compensation awarded or any reduction of the award thereafter
made, together with interest, on the trial of exceptions, and said
interests established shall be binding on all parties, plaintiff and
defendant; provided, that when the determinable interest of any defendant
is not related to the difference in the value of the property before and
after the taking by condemnation, such share set out in the agreement or
the court's finding thereof shall not be affected by any increase or
reduction so long as the final award is not less than such interest.
4. Any evidence relating to the terms of said determination of interest
shall not be admissible as evidence before the jury on the trial of said
exceptions. (L. 1965 p. 660)
In any action to condemn lands under the power of eminent
domain, where the condemnor has paid into the office of the clerk of the
circuit court the amount of damages assessed by commissioners pursuant to
law, the circuit clerk shall give the owners or those in possession
written notice of such fact within five days. If the owners or those in
possession do not deliver possession of the property condemned within ten
days after the receipt of notice of the payment of the award, then on the
request of the condemnor the court shall issue a writ of possession
directing the sheriff to deliver the possession of such property to the
condemnor forthwith; except that the court may upon the motion of said
owners grant them such extension of time, not to exceed ninety days, as
the court finds to be reasonable under all the circumstances. The writ of
possession shall be executed in the manner provided by law for the
execution of writs of possession in ejectment suits for the recovery of
land. If a writ of possession is issued or a motion filed asking for an
extension by said owners, then all costs accrued in executing the writ
and in the hearing of the motion may be assessed against the said owners.
(L. 1959 S.B. 133 § 1)
Any plaintiff or defendant, individual or corporate, shall have
the right of trial by jury of twelve persons, if either party file
exceptions to the award of commissioners in any condemnation case. (L.
1945 p. 1072 § 1)
The cost of the proceeding to appropriate the right-of-way shall
be paid by the company seeking the appropriation, up to and including the
filing and copying of the report of the commissioners' and the court, as
to any costs made by subsequent litigation, may make such order as in its
discretion may be deemed just. The court shall allow the commissioners a
reasonable compensation for their services, which shall be taxed as costs
in the proceedings. (RSMo 1939 § 1509)
Prior revisions: 1929 § 1345; 1919 § 1796; 1909 § 2365
No telephone or telegraph company shall, by virtue of this
chapter, be authorized to enter or appropriate any dwelling, barn, store,
warehouse or similar building, erected for any agricultural, commercial
or manufacturing purposes, or to erect poles so near thereto as
materially to inconvenience the owner in their use or to occasion injury
thereto. (RSMo 1939 § 1510)
Prior revisions: 1929 § 1346; 1919 § 1797; 1909 § 2366
In case property is to be, will be, or has been by any
corporation damaged for public use, any person interested may have such
damages ascertained. The proceedings for ascertaining and paying such
damages shall be the same as are and may be provided by law for assessing
damages which owners of land may sustain in consequence of its
appropriation for railroad purposes. (RSMo 1939 § 1511)
Prior revisions: 1929 § 1347; 1919 § 1798; 1909 § 2367
In case the lands sought to be appropriated are held by any
corporation, the right to appropriate the same by a railroad, telephone
or telegraph company shall be limited to such use as shall not materially
interfere with the uses to which, by law, the corporation holding the
same is authorized to put said lands. Where no agreement can be made
between the parties, the mode of assessing the damages provided
heretofore, as to private persons, shall be adopted; and if the lands to
be appropriated lie in more than one county, an application may be made
in any one county in which any of the lands lie, and the damages shall be
assessed as to all the lands of the defendant corporation along the whole
line in one proceeding. (RSMo 1939 § 1512)
Prior revisions: 1929 § 1348; 1919 § 1799; 1909 § 2368
