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 damages from oil and gas firms for climate-related harms. The case is a key test of whether local governments can sue major energy companies in state courts, and its outcome could shape similar climate litigation across the United States.
Why now: The Supreme Court's decision to take up the case could determine the future of municipal climate lawsuits against energy companies nationwide.
