The Camp Lejeune water contamination lawsuit continues to develop as plaintiffs seek justice for exposure to toxic chemicals on the Marine base between 1953 and 1987. As of September 2024, the litigation remains in the discovery phase, with a focus on expert testimonies to prove the link between toxic exposure and specific diseases such as bladder cancer, kidney cancer, and Parkinson’s disease. Plaintiffs are currently presenting expert witnesses to solidify these claims, while the defense is expected to follow suit with its own experts.
Despite the progress, settlement negotiations remain confidential under court order, as the magistrate aims to protect the integrity of discussions. Trials for the Track 1 cases are expected to begin in 2025, and these trials will set the tone for future settlements.
