The plaintiff's land was not acquired as the process was aborted; thus, no compensation for land or crops is due. The confiscation of logs by the first defendant was unlawful as the plaintiff had complied with legal requirements and paid the imposed fine. The plaintiff is entitled to compensation for the value of the confiscated logs and general damages for inconvenience and loss suffered due to the defendants' conduct.
