Former Ecuador judge on Chevron case says plaintiffs bribed court
• ReutersA former
Ecuadorean judge has claimed that after stepping down from the
bench, he illegally ghostwrote a judgment in which Chevron was
ordered to pay the country $18.2 billion for polluting the rain
forest, and he further charged that the plaintiffs agreed to pay
$500,000 to the judge who handed down the ruling.
