Current Event #8



The flight 370 disappeared 46 days ago. Officials still have not been able to located the missing plane. Families of the victims can now file a law suit against Boeing. The process can be done but its quite complicated since bodies are yet to be found.

This article relates to class because I have been following this story from its beginning for the current events.I think it is correct for the family's victims to file law suits. There love ones have disappeared and I believe Boeing should pay for the consequences. Every time I will aboard a plane, I will be scared.

What is the central idea of the passage and how is it developed and refined throughout the selection? Use evidence from the selection to support your answer.

The central idea of the passage is to inform the latest news about the Flight 370. Boeing can now be sued according to the passage "Attorneys have approached families about compensation lawsuits, but Bajc said the feeling among the relatives is that they do not want to file lawsuits of that type to chase money". The passage also stated "In fact, at least one law firm has already taken the initial steps for a lawsuit. Aviation attorney Monica Kelly said she filed a request for documents and other information in an Illinois court last month in a case against Malaysia Airlines and Boeing. She said she represents Januari Siregar, whose son was aboard Flight 370." The quotes explain the seriousness of the lawsuits against Boeing, stating that lawsuits have already began against Boeing. Boeing will need to prepare against upcoming lawsuits.
