A class action involving alleged exposure to “forever chemicals” in contaminated drinking water withstood a motion to dismiss, and allowed Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act claims to move forward against three companies.
The plaintiffs—Thomas Ryan, Susan Ryan, Sean Gallagher, Ashley Sultan Gallagher, Nancy Donovan, Lauren Ladue, Michele Burt and Christopher Cerasuolo—learned in 2022 their private drinking water wells contained per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, commonly knowns as PFAS or forever chemicals, according to the complaint.
