Law 360 interviewed Baton Rouge Maritime attorney, Kirk A. Guidry, of the Baton Rouge injury law firm of Dué Guidry Andrews Courrege. The article written by Jesse Greenspan appeared on April 23, 2010, and is entitled Much Litigation Expected After Oil Rig Explosion. Kirk Guidry told Law 360 that any personal injury or wrongful death cases would likely be brought under the Jones Act and would therefore not be removable to federal court. Kirk Guidry also stated that the first big issue that would have to be resolved is the limitation of liability issue, which will be argued in Federal Court.
