  7. Ruling in the climate case Saul Lliuya (farmer in Peru) vs German coal major RWE got moved from April 14 to May 28 following a "challenge on grounds of bias" (Befangenheitsantrag) by Lliuya against the court-appointed geologist expert Katzenbach! justiz.nrw/presse/2025-04-09

    Who made the court hire this shitty guy in the first place, eh? RWE ?? I can't trust these judges!
    RWE is such a villain!
    It is well known from past activists' engagements that RWE owns the police in the state North Rhine-Westphalian and are directly responsible for a reporter's fall to death during the dismantling of the tree house village in #HambiBleibt by the police.
    So it is utterly conceivable that RWE owns the district court OLG Hamm as well!!

    The web quotes a sentence Katzenbach said in court: "The damages to Lliuya's property would be ridiculously low."

    Some more ( but not all I read ) of this "expert's" statements in this long thread directly from the court room. Scroll up and down... bsky.app/profile/duycks.bsky.s

    I don't know how such a long thread displays if you're not logged in. So I chose to link to a posting near the end of a thread. Hope it's working out alright.

  14. Important court day. A farmer from Peru is suing German coal major RWE for contributing to climate change which is bound to cause a rockslide into the glacial lake uphill from the farner's honetown.. and drown them all... unless an expensive protection dam is built. The cost of which RWE shall have to pay.
    The verdict by the first instance court in 2017 denied the argument.
    Today's court, Oberlandesgericht Hamm, starts from scratch. The judges even did an onsite visit in 2022 as preparation.
    And they appointed a court expert on specific climate attribution, too...who, it turns out, is on the side of RWE... See the second to last post in below thread...

    Here's a live ticker from the court room. This is the last post in the thread:

    Next court day is Wednesday.

    che cercano di bloccare le cause legali sui cambiamenti climatici.
    Non sarà preso in esame l’appello delle compagnie petrolifere e del gas, che cercano di bloccare le cause legali che mirano a ritenere il settore responsabile dei danni legati al cambiamento climatico.
