Edison Must Face Jury Over Equipment’s Role in Massive 2025 Fire
法官裁定 Southern California Edison 不能逃避就 2025 年 1 月 Eaton Fire 诉讼中核心主张的陪审团审判,该火灾是洛杉矶地区历史上破坏性最大的火灾。Superior Court 法官 Laura Seigle 驳回了该公司要求,拒绝认定 Pasadena 附近遭受数十亿美元财产损失业主在加州公用设备起火自动担责法律下无追索权。

A judge ruled that Southern California Edison cannot escape a trial over a central claim in lawsuits over 2025’s Eaton Fire, the most destructive blaze in the Los Angeles area’s history.
Superior Court Judge Laura Seigle rejected a request by the Edison International unit to rule that property owners who suffered billions of dollars in losses in the January 2025 fire near Pasadena have no recourse under a California law that holds utilities automatically liable when their equipment starts a blaze.
