Eminent domain differs from other civil litigation in that it is constitutionally based. Case law and the Eminent Domain Code (the procedural rules for condemning private property) reflect the constitutional mandate of payment of just compensation for property taken. "The ultimate goal in any eminent domain proceeding is of course to determine constitutionally required 'just compensation.'" Redevelopment Agency v. First Christian Church, 140 Cal. App. 3d 690 (1983).
