In July, Boeing agreed to acknowledge the guilt of charges of criminal fraud after two fatal demolitions of 737 Max Max
The United States Judge abruptly ordered the date of trial of 23 June in the case of a criminal fraud of the Ministry of Justice against Boeing, who was derived from the American regulators from the allegedly misleading aircraft presentations on the key system at 737 Max.
The judge set the trial date on Tuesday.
In July, Boeing agreed to acknowledge the guilt of charges of criminal fraud after two fatal 737 Max collides and paid a fine of up to $ 487.2 million. US District Judge Reed O’Connor previously gave Boeing and the Ministry of Justice by 11 April to reach an agreement on a new confession agreement after Refused the previous jobWashing the provision on diversity and involvement.
O’Connor told Fort Worth in Texas in 2023, “Boeing’s crime can be properly considered the most deadly corporate crime in the US history.”
Wall Street Journal reported on Monday that Boeing wants to withdraw an existing guilt recognition agreement. O’Connor did not indicate why he ordered a trial date or withdrew the deadline before April 11 to reach a new contract.
Boeing said on Tuesday that the company and the Ministry of Justice “are still dealing with discussions about good faith regarding the appropriate resolution of this thing.”
The Ministry of Justice did not immediately comment.
Last year, Boeing’s agreement was reached on a recognition of guilt included the consumption of $ 455 million to improve safety and compliance practice over three years of probation, as well as supervision of an independent monitor for three years.
The relatives of the two collisions of the two collisions of the 737 Max, which took place in 2018 and 2019 and killed 346 people, called the guilt agreement with the “Dear” Corporal Agreement that failed to adequately consider Boeing responsible for the death of their loved ones.
Erin Applebaum, a lawyer who represents 34 families of those who died in the Max Ethiopian Airlines collision in 2019, called on the Ministry of Justice “to stand on the right of history, reject any further negotiations on acknowledgment of guilt and move forward with complete persecution.”
She added: “Families deserve their day in court, and this opportunity for justice should not be spent.”
The accepted agreement on the confession of the guilt would mark the convicted perpetrator for the conspiracy of the Federal Air Force deception on the problematic software that affects flight control systems in aircraft that crashed during Max’s certification.
In May, the Ministry of Justice revealed that Boeing had violated the 2021 agreement, which protected him from criminal prosecution over the collision. Prosecutors then decided to criminal accuse Boeing and negotiate a current agreement on the recognition of guilt.
The decision followed after January 5, 2024, by blowing the door at the door of Alaska Airlines, which in Boeing exposed the constant problems of security and quality.
US President Donald Trump officials said regulators must be firm with Boeing after a series of wrong steps.
“We have to be harder on Boeing. We have to be heavier in the industry,” said Steve Bradbury, who was confirmed as a deputy secretary for traffic this month.
