Big Oil asks Supreme Court to kill climate lawsuits before trial
Major oil companies are asking the US Supreme Court to shut down climate liability lawsuits brought by states and cities before those cases can go to trial. The suits seek damages for costs attributed to climate change, and the industry argues they belong in federal court or should be dismissed entirely. A decision to take up the appeal could reshape whether state-level climate litigation can proceed.
Why now: The Supreme Court is being asked to intervene in high-stakes climate litigation, a decision with major financial and legal consequences.
