Texas Power Failure Litigation TRO

Texas Power Failure Litigation TRO

TRO Secured in Texas Power Disaster Cases

 

Following the Harris county “master complaint” against hundreds of utility generators, power plants, and retailers, Judge Mike Engelhart has issued a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) today at 2:40 pm that filed by Brent Coon & Associates and Robins Cloud LLP.

The TRO prohibits the defendant from destroying evidence associated with the massive blackout in February resulting in millions of people being in the dark, days of suffering, extensive property damage, and loss of life.

As a result, the TRO provides lead counsel the opportunity to obtain documents as part of a thorough investigation into root causes of the failure and fault and ultimately determine who was responsible.

The underlying lawsuit was filed last week on behalf of thousands of angry and injured customers that lost power and/or were gouged with sky-high utility bills.  “We knew it was essential to get a judge to enter an early opinion that otherwise, as we all too often see, evidence mysteriously disappears due to dubious document retainer policies within the industry,” says attorney Brent Coon.
