In re SEPTEMBER 11 LITIGATION
No. 21 MC 97(AKH).
United States District Court,
S.D. New York.
Sept. 9, 2003.
Victims who were injured, and surviv-
ors of victims who where killed, in terror-
ist-related aircraft crashes of September
11, 2001 brought action against airlines,
airport security companies, owners and op-
erator of building destroyed in crash, and
aircraft manufacturer. On defendants’ mo-

companies to secure aircraft against poten-

aboard extended to ground victims of
crashes; (2) crash of the planes hijacked by

(3) federal statutes and regulations provid-

did not preempt plaintiff’s negligence claim
under New York law; (4) owners and oper-
ators of office building owed duty under
New York law to building’s occupants to
create and implement adequate fire safety

manufacturer’s duty under Virginia and
Pennsylvania law; and (7) failure of manu-
facturer to design impenetrable cockpit
door was proximate cause of crashes.
Motion granted in part and denied in
part.
