Opus, the owner of Stoneacre, entered into a written agreement with Miner. Under this written agreement, which was acknowledged and duly recorded, Miner, for a five-year period, was given the privilege to enter on Stoneacre to remove sand, gravel, and stone in whatever quantities Miner desired. Miner was to make monthly payments to Opus on the basis of the amount of sand, gravel, and stone removed during the previous month. Under the terms of the agreement, Miner's privilege was exclusive against all others except Opus, who reserved the right to use Stoneacre to any purpose whatsoever, including the removal of sand, gravel, and stone. One year after the agreement was entered into, the state brought a condemnation action to take Stoneacre for a highway interchange. In the condemnation action, is Miner entitled to compensation?
Yes, because he has a license, which is a property right protected by the due process clause.  Yes, because he has a profit Ã  prendre, which is a property right protected by the due process clause.  No, because he has a license, and licenses are not property rights protected by the due process clause.  No, because he has a profit Ã  prendre, which is not a property right protected by the due process clause.
