What More Will Be Learned On GM Ignition Switch Defect Coverup?

July, 2015

Dear Care for Crash Victims Community Members:

The NY Times carries an article that notes:“Last week, plaintiffs suing G.M. asked the Federal District Court in Manhattan to find that the company and its outside lawyers engaged in criminal or fraudulent activity by covering up the defect. That, the plaintiffs say, allows the court to lift the veil of confidentiality over their communications.

This request presents a significant threat that could reveal even more embarrassing information about how the automaker’s lawyers dealt with the defect.”

And will communications with DOT officials also become public?
