Comair Liability Arguments Set For August
U. S. District Judge Karl Forester decided Tuesday to move the Comair Flight 5191 proceedings from December 1, to August 4.
The crash occurred in August, 2006 at the Blue Grass Airport in Lexington. Forester says he is trying to encourage Comair to settle with family members of the passengers who lost their live in the crash.
Comair claims to have settled 15 cases, but stopped settlements because of an uncertainty over whether the Federal Aviation Administration will be added to the case as a defendant.
