Massachusetts beats Exxon bid to delay impending climate change case

BOSTON: Massachusetts sued Exxon Mobil Corp on Thursday, with the state's attorney general accusing the oil giant of misleading investors and consumers for decades about the role fossil fuels play in climate change.

But she ruled that the state was under no obligation to wait longer than that after notifying Exxon on Oct. 10 of its intent to sue, which Assistant Attorney General Richard Johnston said his office wants to do"ASAP", or as soon as possible.Exxon did not respond to a request for comment.

Healey in 2016 issued a so-called civil investigative demand to Exxon seeking documents to determine whether it had violated the Massachusetts consumer-protection law through its marketing and sale of fossil fuel products.
