PA: $4.2M Jury Award for Nuisance in Gas Drilling

Last week, 2 Pennsylvania families won a $4.2M jury award against fracking operators for contaminating their wells.  Plaintiffs’ fracking verdicts have been rare, with the 2014 Parr case in Texas ($2.9M) leading the way.  BNA Bloomberg has the story, with an emphasis on whether this verdict will embolden potential plaintiffs.
