The hundreds of lawsuits filed against Live Nation and Travis Scott over the deadly Astroworld music festival are moving forward as one enormous case
The large new case will absorb at least 387 separate lawsuits that seek to represent nearly 2,800 alleged victims. Those lawsuits claim that festival promoter Live Nation, Scott himself and other organizersin how they planned and conducted Astroworld, and they’re seeking billions in total damages.
The move toward a single case was agreed upon by both sides. In requesting to go that route, attorneys for both sides wrote that “this type of litigation is exactly what the Texas MDL process is designed to address.” If the Astroworld litigation does not end in such a settlement, a few individual cases could eventually be tried as so-called bellwether trials – representative cases used in multi-district litigation allow a judge and both sides to assess the strength of the larger case. For instance, a loss in such a bellwether can convince one side to settle, out of fear of a wider loss in the overall litigation.
