UPDATES | 3/31/25 - WSJ - A Bad Business on the Bayou - Chevron finds itself the victim of a political alliance between the tort bar and Louisiana Republicans - The plaintiffs’ lawyers in the land-loss case now under way contend that oil companies should be held liable for the 2,000 square miles of Louisiana wetlands and barrier islands lost to coastal erosion since the 1930s. The primary cause of the coastal land loss is well known. Researchers agree that the leveeing of the Mississippi River in the early 1900s is the main culprit. The Mississippi River has no assets, so the plaintiffs’ bar is targeting energy companies instead. ALRA: Who's doing this? Plaintiffs’ attorney John Carmouche is orchestrating 40 lawsuits against oil companies with friendly help from Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry and Attorney General Elizabeth Murrill—both Republicans. Carmouche and his law partners donated $300,000 to a pro-Landry super PAC. Carmouche’s firm and an associated PAC contributed at least $10,500 to campaigns for Michael Clement, the very Judge presiding over Carmouche's case now underway! |
