The first lawsuit stemming from the Ethiopian Airlines crash has been filed in Chicago by the family of a 24-year-old American woman killed in the disaster, who is the niece of consumer advocate icon Ralph Nader.
was ordering the immediate grounding of all Boeing 737 MAX 8 and MAX 9 aircraft in the United States after other countries -- including Canada, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Australia, Malaysia, Oman, Singapore, and Malaysia -- had already grounded the planes.
A notice of claim was filed against the Federal Aviation Administration on behalf on the Stumo family, the family's lawyer said. The notice is the first step before filing a lawsuit against the FAA and the federal agency has six months to respond before the Stumo family can file a formal lawsuit. "They delegated that responsibility to the manufacturer, Boeing, who had another motive of getting this aircraft out for sale," Durkin said. "They should not have delegated that responsibility ... and should have made their own independent determination that this system was safe."
ABC News has also reached out to Rosemount Aerospace and Ethiopian Airlines for comment but have yet to receive a response from either company. "Then we learned we would not bring home her body or even fragments of her body," the father said. " I stood on that Ethiopian and agricultural field with my family looking at the crater, feeling her. This should not happen to anyone again. That's why we're here."
"Those in charge of creating and selling this plane did not treat Samya as they would their own daughters," she added. "We, as passengers, need to demand that planes be safe so no one else dies. Profits should not come before safety and we are making this effort here to help prevent a third crash."
