The state of Texas has sued BP and a number of other companies connected to the April 2012 Deepwater Horizon rig explosion. Texas asserts causes of action under a number of environmental laws for what the state calls the "worst environmental disaster" in the nation’s history.
The state seeks unspecified damages in the 44-page complaint filed on May 17 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas in Beaumont.
