BP (NYSE:BP), Transocean (NYSE:RIG), Anadarko (NYSE:APC), Mitsui (Nasdaq:MITSY), Lloyds, Sued by Obama

BP (NYSE:BP), Transocean (NYSE:RIG), Anadarko (NYSE:APC) and Mitsui (Nasdaq:MITSY) are all being sued by the Obama administration, along with BP's insurer, Lloyds of London.

The Justice Department has requested a federal judge in New Orleans to hold the four oil companies liable of unlimited damages, a nod toward the $75 million cap under the U.S. Oil Pollution Act.

Lloyds, while being sued, wasn't included in the request.

The lawsuit is seeking damages in relationship to the alleged violations of U.S. environmental laws. Litigation could go on for years.

  2. With havin so much written content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or
    copyright infringement? My blog has a lot of unique content I've either authored myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any methods to help stop content from being ripped off? I'd truly appreciate it.

    relied on the video to make your point. You definitely know
    what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence
    on just posting videos to your blog when you could be giving us something enlightening to read?

  5. I do not know whether it's just me or if perhaps everybody else experiencing problems with your blog. It appears as though some of the written text on your content are running off the screen. Can somebody else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them too? This might be a issue with my internet browser because I've had this happen before.
    Thank you
