Courthouse Steps Oral Argument: Chevron USA, Inc. v. Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana
Event Video
This case stems from consolidated state court suits brought by several Louisiana Parishes seeking to hold oil and gas companies liable for damage to the Louisiana coast. Hundreds of millions of dollars in damages are at stake. An appeals court rebuffed the companies' attempt to move from state to federal court. Now the Supreme Court will consider whether the companies' refining contracts with the federal government dating back to World War II establish federal court jurisdiction under the Federal Officer Removal Statute.
