8 Id. at 1320. In reaching this conclusion, the court relied upon the Supreme Court’s analysis in Andrus v. Allard, 444 U.S. 51 (1979). In Andrus, the Court had reasoned that a loss of future profits, without any physical property restraint, is a slim basis for a taking claim.

Plaintiff also asserted that, should the court rule against its Fifth Amendment claim, “Briggs’ right to pursue its trade and profit from it is worthy of ninth amendment protection.” 539 F.Supp. at 1317. The court found no merit to this “barebones assertion.” Ibid.
