"No decision on Exxon Valdez interest payments"

"No decision on Exxon Valdez interest payments": The Associated Press provides a report that begins, "The Supreme Court has declined to decide whether Exxon Mobil Corp. must pay interest to victims of the nation's worst oil spill that would roughly double the $507 million judgment the high court approved in June. In a brief order Tuesday, the court said the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, based in San Francisco, should decide the matter of interest arising from the 1989 Exxon Valdez disaster."

Greg Stohr of Bloomberg News reports that "Exxon Valdez Interest Issue Left Unresolved by Court."

And at "SCOTUSblog," Lyle Denniston has a post titled "Court declines to rule on Exxon interest."

You can access the judgment that the U.S. Supreme Court issued today at this link.
