GM is facing at least 36 related lawsuits, some from people with similar claims to Maciel. The automaker said it will soon ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan to enforce the injunction in the sale order that bars anyone from suing it for claims that it rejected in bankruptcy.
“They’re trying to hide behind bankruptcy to keep from fixing the cars the way they should be fixing them,” said Lance Cooper, a Marietta, Georgia-based attorney helping represent the Maciel plaintiffs.
