The Boston Globe reports that the parties are in discussions to settle the lawsuit relating to the 2006 death of Milena Del Valle, who was killed when portions of the roof of a tunnel fell onto her vehicle.  Massachusetts AG Martha Coakley is also considering whether criminal charges are appropriate.  The story also notes that the various defendants have filed 172 cross- and counter-claims relating to responsibility for the collapse.
