We, the undersigned, want it to be known that the victims of the Gulf Oil Disaster deserve to be heard by a judge with no ties to Big Oil.

Over 300 lawsuits have been filed in regards to the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon and the subsequent oil spill. BP, among others, are named as the defendants in these lawsuits. Back in June, BP requested that a single Judge preside over the combined lawsuits: Judge Lynn Hughes of Houston, Texas. Judge Hughes has an immense conflict of interest because of his deep ties to the oil and gas industry. The residents who are already affected deserve a truly independent Judge to preside over these lawsuits.

Therefore, we the undersigned petition the JPML to select a Judge with no ties to the oil industry.

    • What BP has done to the Gulf of Mexico is criminal...gross negligence. It is your responsibility as our enforcers of the law to see that these criminals are penalized for their gross negligence which is greatly disturbing the food chain and livelihoods of so many of our American people. I pray that you find the courage to deal with this and send a message to the world that this cannot be tolerated - to sacrifice our paradise for the sake of greed. What BP, Transocean, and Haliburton did is unacceptable, unforgiveable, and catastrophic. Many of us will be watching how you handle this. Keep in mind we will not forget with time either.
