ok..


so the key to suing china....
is to not go after the chinese government(which as mentioned is protected sovereign immunity) but to go after the chinese communist party (which is not protected)

my original post was actually a serious question.
and i would urge folks to contact their local AG and/or an ambitious local attorney to get things moving.

Missouri 1st state to sue China, CCP for economic damages from coronavirus

quote:

Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt (R) filed a civil lawsuit in a federal court against several entities within China, including the Chinese government, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), National Health Commission, Ministry of Emergency Management, Ministry of Civil Affairs, Hubei Government, Wuhan City Government, Wuhan Institute of Virology, and Chinese Academy of Sciences.
The suit charges Chinese authorities with committing "an appalling campaign of deceit, concealment, misfeasance, and inaction," which led to the catastrophic pandemic.

Well this seems even more pointless.

I think you need to give up any hope for a lawsuit. In fact, I actually don’t think a lawsuit against China has any merit in the first place, and it seems unhealthy.
