Heading: City of St. Petersburg v. Kablinger

Text: On July 1, 1993, the City of St. Petersburg's NAB issued an order closing the property at issue here, an apartment complex then owned by Residential Property Management Inc., (RPM), based on at least two incidents involving the sale of cocaine within the preceding six months in violation of section 19-67 of the St. Petersburg Code of Ordinances. [6] In 1995, following corporate dissolution, RPM assigned its interest in the aforementioned property to Kablinger. Thereafter, Kablinger filed a complaint on June 17, 1997, against the City of St. Petersburg for inverse condemnation seeking compensation for the 1993 closure. The trial court granted Kablinger's motion for summary judgment as to the City's liability. On appeal, the Second District affirmed the trial court's grant of summary judgment finding the case materially indistinguishable from its earlier decision in Bowen and certifying conflict with Keshbro. Kablinger, 730 So.2d at 410.
