IN CALIFORNIA, THE USE OF ECONOMIC DATA WAS FOUND PERTINENT TO RIGHT-OF-WAY ACQUISITION ACTIVITIES: (1) STUDIES OF THE RATE OF ABSORPTION OF PROPERTY WITHIN A DEVELOPING AREA, AND (2) STUDIES OF THE SALES OF REMAINDERS AFTER LAND FOR RIGHT-OF-WAY PURPOSES HAS BEEN SEVERED. ECONOMIC STUDIES WERE STUDIED CALLED RATE OF ABSORPTION STUDIES CONSISTING OF INFORMATION RELATING TO THE ACTUAL GROWTH AND PATTERN OF LAND USE THAT HAS DEVELOPED IN SOME OF THE FREEWAY COMMUNITIES. THE USE OF THIS TYPE OF EVIDENCE IN COURT HAS BEEN APPROVED. ANOTHER ECONOMIC STUDY DEALS WITH THE EXPERIENCE THAT HAS BEEN RECORDED WHEN SEVERED REMAINDERS WERE RESOLD ON THE MARKET FOLLOWING CONSTRUCTION OF A HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENT. THESE DATA ARE POTENTIALLY VERY USEFUL AND THESE REMAINDER SALES STUDIES ARE CONDUCTED IN EACH OF OUR OFFICES. IN PREPARATION FOR A CONDEMNATION TRAIL, THE APPRAISAL TESTIMONY THAT WILL BE GIVEN IS REVEIWED TO SEE WHERE AVAILABLE DATA MAY HELP THE APPRAISERS ARRIVE AT SOME DEFINITIE FIGURE FOR THE BENEFITS THAT THE LAND WILL RECEIVE. THE USE OF THIS TYPE OF DATUM IN A CONDEMNATION TRIAL IS DEPENDENT ON EACH STATE'S LAW OF EVIDENCE. THE LAWS RELATING TO ADMISSIBILITY OF ECONOMIC EVIDENCE IN RIGHT-OF-WAY ACQUISITION CASES ARE DISCUSSED.
