Almost 20 years later and this is still not resolved. Exxon spilled the oil and did a lot of damage and is trying to buy more time.

With the money they are making now they could settle this instantly. This sickens me.


Supreme Court to Take up Exxon Valdez Case

It's greed. Once you get money the last thing you want to do is just give it away 'for nothing' in return. They know what they did and what happened. A case like this will already take a long enough time to resolve. It wasn't Exxon that spilled the oil themselves, by the way, but a tanker owned by them. That makes their company liable for damages from environmental laws. That doesn't change that the fact of them trying to skip out on paying any better though.
