Astroworld Festival Suits Pile Up, Lawyers Bountiful in TRO Hearing in Harris Co. District Court

The first round of lawsuits – 31 of them as of Tuesday at 10:30 a.m. – hit the Harris County District Court dockets through late Monday evening charging a plethora of individuals, businesses and a non-profit organization with gross negligence and premises liability related to the tragedy that occurred Friday at the Astroworld Festival that killed eight people and injured hundreds of others.

Hundreds of additional complaints are expected to be filed in the coming weeks seeking hundreds of millions of dollars.
