UNITED STATES COURT OF FEDERAL CLAIMS
DEFENDENT’S Motion to Dismiss is DENIED
[su_spacer]
OPINION AND ORDER
Plaintiff Orville Nix, Jr., seeks just compensation under the Fifth Amendment
for an alleged taking of property: namely, a long-missing film of the assassination of
President John F. Kennedy. Am. Compl. (ECF 39). The government moved to dismiss,
arguing that Plaintiff has failed to plead facts sufficient to state a takings claim
within this Court’s statute of limitations. Those arguments fail — at least at the
pleadings stage — so the motion to dismiss is DENIED.
