A Chicago trial begins over the 2019 Ethiopian Airlines 737 MAX crash that killed 157, with Boeing facing wrongful death claims.
A civil trial has begun in Chicago over the 2019 Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 737 MAX crash that killed 157 people, marking the first U.S. courtroom proceeding in the case.
The trial, overseen by Judge Jorge Alonso, involves 11 unresolved cases alleging wrongful death and negligence against Boeing.
Two primary plaintiffs—Shikha Garg from India and Mercy Ndivo from Kenya—are pursuing damages, with three others on reserve.
Despite Boeing’s prior settlements and expressions of regret over the crash and a similar 2018 incident, the parties remain far apart on compensation, making a trial outcome likely.
Opening statements are expected soon, following jury selection.
