This lawsuit was filed by the Presbyterian Church of Sudan and representative named plaintiffs on behalf of a putative class of non-Muslim residents of southern Sudan. The plaintiffs were attached by the Sudanese military and militia groups it controlled because they lived in areas identified for oil exploration and development by Talisman Energy, Inc. (“Talisman”) and its joint venture partner the Government of Sudan (“GOS”)…This petition seeks review of the Second Circuit’s decision affirming summary judgment in favor of Talisman.
