Environmental litigation consists of lawsuits brought by environmentalist groups to enrich themselves with no meaningful benefit to the environment. Many of these lawsuits are brought within the often-reversed Ninth Circuit, particularly California.
Dieselgate litigation
Dieselgate lawsuits are a shake-down of Volkswagen, which was once the wealthiest company in the world. These American lawsuits have already cost the German company more than $30 billion, and another wave of litigation as brought by many counties in the United States could cost Volkswagen even more if allowed by the U.S. Supreme Court.
