Sandy Hook lawsuit could force Remington to open books
In this March 1, 2018 photo, the Remington name is seen etched on a model 870 shotgun at Duke’s Sport Shop in New Castle, Pa. For years, the gun industry has been immune from most lawsuits, but a recent ruling allowing families of victims in the Newton school shooting to challenge the way an AR-15 used by the shooter was marketed is upending that longstanding roadblock. The U.S. Supreme Court recently rejected efforts by gunmaker Remington to quash the lawsuit, allowing it to continue to be heard in Connecticut courts. (Keith Srakocic/AP, File)
