United States Supreme Court Hears Challenge to Twenty-Year Old Agent Orange Class Action Settlement

 By Jerry P. Sattin of McCarter & English, LLP

On February 26, the United States Supreme Court heard argument in a case with far-reaching implications for any company that has been a party to a mass tort class action settlement or may in the future be a party to mass tort litigation. The Court's decision, expected to be announced by the end of the 2002-03 term, will address whether a plaintiff may challenge a twenty-year old class action settlement which was challenged twice before on the same ground, and where the challenge was rejected twice before both by the district and appellate courts.
