Lajim, LLC v. Gen. Elec. Co.

摘要

Federal district court has authority under Resource Conservation and Recovery Act to enter mandatory injunctive relief in citizen suit brought by golf course owner and his business partners alleging that company is responsible for ground-water contamination at course, because, even though Illinois agency is considering remediation plan that may address scope of relief sought by owner and partners: (1) court already determined that enforcement action brought by agency did not bar RCRA citizen suit claims, (2) court found company is liable for contamination, and (3) RCRA plainly authorizes injunctive relief in citizen suits.
