Keshbro and others are owners of the Stardust Motel in a high-crime area in the northeastern sector of the City of Miami. The City's Nuisance Abatement Board filed a complaint alleging that the motel was a public nuisance because it harbored crime and eventually ordered it closed for 175 days. The owners eventually filed for bankruptcy and sued the City for the "taking" of their property. The trial judge ruled for the owners, but the Third District reversed.
