Court of Appeals of Oregon July 11, 2007, C040775CV; A130108 (Northwest Natural Gas Co. v. Shirazi)

*115

SCHUMAN, J.

The parties in this condemnation case could not agree on the amount of compensation due to defendant as a result of plaintiffs construction and operation of an underground natural gas pipeline across defendant’s property. A trial ensued, and the jury awarded defendant $21,691.25 as compensation for the taking — considerably less than he sought.
