Major ruling looks near in Exxon Valdez case

Having taken care of a couple of snags, it appears federal Judge H. Russel Holland is ready to issue an order as soon as today authorizing the biggest single distribution yet of Exxon Valdez winnings — close to $300 million — to thousands of commercial fishermen and other plaintiffs.

When the order comes down, I'll post it here!

    Oh My I do hope the fishermen see these funds, not the lawyers.

    The order has been filed. Let's just hope nobody appeals or otherwise screws up the distribution in the next 30 days!
