Supreme Court to weigh bid to end Boulder climate lawsuit
Original: Supreme Court to weigh energy companies' bid to end Boulder climate-change lawsuit
The US Supreme Court has agreed to consider energy companies' request to dismiss the City of Boulder's climate-change lawsuit, which seeks to hold fossil fuel producers liable for climate-related costs. The case is part of a broader wave of local government suits against major oil companies, and a ruling could shape whether such claims proceed in state courts.
Why now: The Supreme Court's decision to hear the case could determine the fate of municipal climate lawsuits nationwide.
