Boeing Hit With Deposition Demand in Norwegian Air Lawsuit

Norwegian Air subsidiaries have asked a Washington federal judge to order the deposition of a former Boeing executive, claiming he has crucial information about the safety of the 737 Max jets.

The Norwegian Air affiliates are suing Boeing over allegations that the company misled them into purchasing the 737 Max aircraft by overstating their safety features.

According to court documents, the subsidiaries are seeking the deposition of a former Boeing executive who allegedly has knowledge about information shared with top corporate leaders during the development of the 737 Max.

The judge is being asked to order the deposition as part of an ongoing lawsuit in which Norwegian Air's affiliates claim that they were duped into purchasing the jets, leading to significant financial losses.
