Flint Water Crisis Plaintiffs Propose Interim Counsel To Negotiate A Settlement

ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Plaintiffs in the litigation related to the lead-contaminated water crisis in Flint, Mich., on July 29 moved in Michigan federal court for the appointment of interim sub-class settlement counsel, arguing that doing so allows the co-lead class counsel to continue litigating the case so that if a settlement cannot be reached, the class would not be prejudiced by having its attorneys "distracted from the goal of building their case" (In re Flint Water Cases, No. 16-10444, E.D. Mich.).
