The U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear Boeing’s petition to overturn a Texas appellate decision in a lawsuit brought by the Southwest Airlines Pilots Association seeking lost revenues tied to 737 MAX groundings, leaving the lower-court ruling intact and SWAPA’s damages claim able to proceed.

Briefing
SCOTUS refusal preserves the Texas appellate ruling and keeps Boeing exposed to SWAPA’s lost-revenue damages tied to the 737 MAX groundings, reinforcing ongoing legal risk around the program (ongoing 737 MAX litigation).
The ruling maintains potential settlement and financial liability for Boeing, compounding risks alongside other civil resolutions the company faces (recent settlements).
It adds to an active litigation ecosystem connected to the MAX, where victims’ families and other parties continue to pursue related criminal and civil actions (victims’ families seeking revival of criminal case).
