Equitrans Files to Dismiss 2 Remaining Lawsuits Blocking MVP

Last week, the U.S. House and Senate voted to approve the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023, to raise the debt ceiling. President Biden signed the bill on Saturday. A section in the bill forces federal government agencies and courts to complete all necessary authorizations to finish building the 94% completed Mountain Valley Pipeline (see Equitrans Announces Mountain Valley Pipe to Get Completed in 2023). The bill removes the right of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit (4th Circuit) to hear any more cases concerning MVP. There are two current active cases before the clown judges of the 4th Circuit. Equitrans (MVP) has filed a motion to dismiss both lawsuits.
