Alabama sues BP, Transocean, Halliburton, etc. over Deepwater Horizon


Posted on Aug 13, 2010

The Alabama Attorney General has filed a pair of federal lawsuits against companies connected to the Deepwater Horizon platform that exploded on April 20, killing 11 workers, injuring 17 others and triggering the Gulf oil disaster.  Troy King filed one suit against  BP Plc and the second against Transocean, Halliburton and other related companies for economic and punitive damages caused by the 200 million gallon-plus spill. King said Thursday that he was motivated to take action because of repeated broken promises to accept responsibility.
