In re: New Indy Emissions Litigation

WE BELIEVE CLEAN AIR AND WATER ARE FUNDAMENTAL HUMAN RIGHTS

New-Indy has allegedly been emitting foul-smelling and harmful pollutants and contaminants such as hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan, and methanol into the air and discharging inadequately treated wastewater into the Catawba River. Roughly one million residents in North Carolina and South Carolina have been and continue to be exposed to potential illness-causing contamination through breathing and being generally exposed to the contaminated air and groundwater. 

Immediately upon hearing the complaints from citizens about the contamination, we contacted environmental experts and began a thorough investigation into the extent of the contamination. On May 18, 2021, a putative class action lawsuit was filed and on Dec. 8, 2021, the court appointed Chase T. Brockstedt and Philip C. Federico of Baird Mandalas Brockstedt & Federico, Richard A. Harpootlian of Richard A. Harpootlian Law Firm, P.A. and T. David Hoyle of Motley Rice LLC as interim co-lead class counsel.
