“Plaintiffs’ lawyers across the gulf region are now openly advertising that the settlement is a way for claimants to collect payouts even if they have no losses at all. If this travesty is allowed to continue, BP will be irreparably harmed, and future defendants will be reluctant to settle because they cannot be confident that settlement agreements will be construed textually and fairly.

The Sunday Times has published an article by Danny Fortson today under the headline:
BP fights to halt ‘bogus’ gulf claims
The article says, BP WILL go to court tomorrow to try to overhaul a landmark $7.8bn compensation deal, citing a flood of “absurd and egregiously inflated” payments that threaten to “irreparably harm” the company.

The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
