No Surprise: Exxon Appeal
As expected, Exxon Mobil Corp. is appealing $150 million verdict awarded to group to Baltimore County whose groundwater was contaminated by a 26,000-gallon gasoline leak. Exxon believes the award is excessive given the damages caused and I'm sure they have lots of other potential legal theories for appeal that are invariable in a case that went on as long as this one did.
- Exxon jury verdict
- Trial tactics in the Exxon case.
- Punitive damages in Maryland (are they available in the Exxon trial in Baltimore County?)
