Supreme Court Sides with Chevron

The decision overturns a state jury's order for Chevron to pay $745 million to restore the damaged ecosystems.

The ruling is seen as a significant victory for oil companies facing similar environmental litigation across the country.

Justices emphasized that the federal government's control over wartime production preempted state claims.

Environmental groups have criticized the decision, warning it sets a dangerous precedent for corporate accountability in long-term ecological damage.
