Residents file class action lawsuit over unstable chemical tank in Garden Grove
Summary
Residents in Garden Grove have filed a class action lawsuit against GKN Aerospace, the company responsible for an unstable chemical tank that forced 50,000 people to evacuate. The lawsuit, led by the X-Law Group and Presidio Law Firm, names two residents from the evacuation zone as plaintiffs, though the number is expected to grow. The lawyers argue that the company has a responsibility to handle highly toxic and volatile chemicals prudently. They are seeking accountability, representation, and protection of property rights for the evacuated families. The lawsuit conservatively estimates damages could reach into the hundreds of millions or billions of dollars.
