Description
WINTER, Circuit Judge : The Town of Smithtown (""Smithtown"") and James Dowling, the town's Superintendent of Highways, appeal from an adverse jury verdict awarding damages for violating the substantive due process rights of Robert Walz, Lana Sue Walz, and Robert Walz, Jr. (the ""Walzes""). The Walzes were denied access to public water supply when Dowling refused to issue a permit allowing the county water authority to excavate a public street in order to connect the Walzes' home to the public water system. Dowling's refusal was intended to coerce the Walzes to convey some of their land to Smithtown. We affirm.
