On April 30, 2008, Morris Polich & Purdy LLP presented a paper and seminar on the subject of Climate Change Litigation in the U.S.: Theories of Liability and Insurance Issues. The level of interest expressed about that subject at that time combined with ongoing developments relating to climate change litigation suggested the desirability of periodically updating that presentation. This third update complements the initial presentation along with our June and December 2008 updates.
