Report on the Erika sinking trial in December 1999. The Total group appealed to the Court of Cassation arguing that the French court did not have jurisdiction to hear the case. A procedure that could overturn the first two convictions of the group. Back to the facts based on archival images, interviews and reactions of inhabitants of Noirmoutiers. Daniel SOULEZ-LARIVIERE, lawyer of the Total group, speaks of the charterer’s non-liability in the disaster. Corinne LEPAGE, lawyer for the civil parties, finds that the review of the trial would be a regression for the environment.
