Description
Former Louisiana Civil Code Article 2315.3 granted injured plaintiffs the right to seek punitive damages against parties who wantonly or recklessly disregard public safety in the storage, handling, or transportation of hazardous or toxic substances. We granted defendants' writ application to consider whether parties who have had no physical possession of or control over a hazardous or toxic substance can nonetheless be held responsible for punitive damages based on the acts of alleged co-conspirators.
