What to know about what's tying up a $4B settlement for Hawaii wildfire victims

  • Hawaii's Supreme Court is considering insurance issues related to a potential $4 billion settlement for wildfire victims from the 2023 Maui fire, which was the deadliest in the U.S. In over a century.
  • Seven defendants have agreed to pay $4 billion to resolve claims, but legal challenges could delay the settlement process.
  • Attorneys for victims argue that the settlement is insufficient but necessary due to the financial instability of Hawaiian Electric, the main defendant.
  • Insurance companies claim they are being unfairly blamed for the situation, asserting that subrogation helps manage costs and supports victims' recovery.
