Description
VAN SANT, Commissioner. In the year 1944 appellee laid a twenty-four inch gas pipeline from Corpus Christi, Texas, to a point near Charleston, West Virginia, on a thirty foot right of way which previously had been acquired by the Hope Natural Gas Company. The line runs diagonally through Kentucky and passes through a portion of appellants property in Clark County. This line is insufficient to supply the increased demands of the users in the territory it was laid to serve; so to meet these demands appellee is now engaged in laying an additional twenty-six inch pipeline. The plans for the new construction call for a fifty foot right of way through the property of appellants for approximately 550 lineal feet. For the purpose of obtaining this right of way appellee instituted this condemnation proceeding under the provisions of KRS 278.500. The action was commenced in the County Court, and an appeal was taken to the Circuit Court where the jury fixed the damages at $399.90.
