BP IS ATTACKING THE AGREEMENT THEY MADE!
BP IS ATTACKING THE CLAIMS ADMINISTRATOR THEY CHOSE!
The evidence in the court record has not generally supported BP’s contention that claims administrator Patrick Juneau is compensating claimants who are ineligible under the multi-billion-dollar settlement BP signed with a committee of plaintiffs’ lawyers in the spring of 2012.
In letters and emails written by BP’s lawyers while they worked out settlement details and later as they sought U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier’s approval for the agreement, the company specifically acknowledged how losses would be calculated and that professionals like lawyers and accountants would be eligible to collect – and that if they met basic formulas for eligibility, they could be paid for losses that likely stemmed from something other than the spill.
