In late October, the People of the State of New York v. ExxonMobil Corp. trial began in the Supreme Court of the State of New York before Justice Barry Ostrager. The lawsuit was brought under New York’s Martin Act, an anti-fraud statute, and alleged that ExxonMobil misled its investors about how the company accounted for climate-change risks. The trial was the culmination of a nearly three year investigation that was initially launched by former New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman with his successor eventually filing a lawsuit against ExxonMobil in the fall of 2018. Justice Ostrager handed down his decision on December 10, 2019, ruling for Exxon. Andrew M. Grossman, partner at BakerHostetler, joins us to discuss the ruling, next steps in the case and its implications for other ongoing litigation brought by states and municipalities against energy companies.
