The U.S. Supreme Court on March 10 turned away a lawsuit brought by Republican attorneys general in 19 states seeking to halt lawsuits filed by five Democrat-led states against major energy companies.

Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented from the court’s decision, indicating they would have granted the 19 states’ request to hear the case.
