U.S. Supreme Court grants certiorari in 2 cases
The U.S. Supreme Court today granted certiorari in two cases: Exxon v. Baker and Allison Engine v. U.S.
SCOTUSBlog provides a preview of the two cases. In Exxon, the Court will examine the intersection between the $2.5 billion punitive damages award against Exxon for the oil spill in Alaska in 1989 and maritime law (the Court will not consider a Due Process claim against the award). In Allison Engine, the Court will consider the scope of the the Federal False Claims Act.
