ABSTRACT: U.S. District Court Judge Thelton Henderson ruled on February 2, 2016, that the criminal trial, scheduled to begin March 22, 2016, will be divided into two phases. “
Phase one would determine PG&E's guilt or innocence on 12 criminal counts, including 11 allegations the company violated the Pipeline Safety Act and one charge that it obstructed justice by impeding an investigation into the explosion by the National Transportation Safety Board. The second phase, if PG&E is convicted on one or more counts in the guilt portion of the trial, would determine any fines against PG&E,” according to reporting by George Avalos, Bay Area News Group.
