MISCELLANEOUS
(Con’t)
ExxonMobil Corp., 663 F. Supp 2d 863 (N.D. Cal. 2009), appeal
docketed, No. 09-17490 (9th Cir. 2010). A fourth case, in which
automakers were sued under nuisance theories, in 2007 met
the same fate—dismissal under the political question doctrine.
See California v. Gen. Motors Corp., No. C06-05755, 2007 WL
2726871 (N.D. Cal. Sept 17, 2007). The appeal was voluntarily
dismissed.
