Norfolk Southern Confident of Legal Victory in Contested Mural Dispute

Norfolk Southern announced that it expects to succeed in its legal battle against an artist who filed a lawsuit alleging the company covered over murals on a railroad bridge. This statement was made despite a federal magistrate determining that the sham affidavit doctrine was inapplicable after the artist altered his story during depositions related to two separate lawsuits. The company maintains that the artist’s changes to his timeline have no bearing on the case’s outcome. For more details, the article can be accessed on Law360.
