Ask Harris County Judges to Dismiss Lawsuits |
|
The
Astros have asked Harris County district judges to dismiss the three lawsuits
filed against the ballclub by ticket holders who claim they were defrauded by
the sign-stealing scandal in 2017-18. In each case, attorneys for the team say
ticket holders lack standing to file suit, their claims are barred by the
statute of limitations and plaintiffs have failed to state a claim upon which
a court could grant a judgment against the Astros.

Fe Settles Lawsuit Over Worker's Electrocution Death |
|
A
settlement has been reached in a lawsuit filed by the New Mexico Environment
Department against the city of Santa Fe over a worker's electrocution death.
The city employee died in April 2019 after being electrocuted while attempting
to replace a light fixture. The lawsuit stated the man was not a trained
electrician. An Occupational Health and Safety Bureau investigation revealed
the city had committed multiple violations by having untrained workers replace
electrical equipment. The city will pay $120,000, over half of which goes
toward training and safety improvements.
