A lawsuit filed by parents whose children were killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting will move forward after the Supreme Court declined to block the filing.

Parents of kids killed in the 2012 shooting, which was carried out by Adam Lanza, argue Remington Arms Co. should be held liable because of the way the company marketed a rifle that Lanza used.
