Issue(s) Presented

1. “Whether the magistrate judge erred in holding that Mr. Jenkins could not assert a compensable takings claim arising from the federal government’s physical appropriation of his property outside of federal forfeiture proceedings simply because the federal government’s initial seizure fell under a limited exception for temporary deprivations in direct furtherance of law enforcement functions.” 2. “Whether the magistrate judge erred in dismissing Mr. Jenkins’ due-process claim despite the Little Tucker Act’s waiver of sovereign immunity for claims against the United States alleging that property was improperly exacted in contravention of due process.”
