Practice question
A private internet-service company seeks statutory immediate possession solely because it supplies a listed public service. It has no granted eminent-domain authority under a franchise or other law. Which is sound?
- The amended coverage definition also requires the specified legal grant of eminent-domain authority.
- Providing any listed service automatically creates the missing statutory power.
- The company may occupy every parcel by private demand.
- A business permit necessarily is every required expropriation grant.
- The deposit percentage alone establishes authority.
