What are some of the department's most satisfying successes of the past year and why? We are thrilled every time we achieve successful outcomes for our clients, and over the past year we have been pleased to secure many positive results. One highlight was leading PG&E's defense in a $2.5 billion class action related to power shutoff events the company performed to reduce the risk of wildfires. The matter was litigated within PG&E's complex Chapter 11 proceedings and the dismissal we secured helped pave the way for the company to confirm its plan of reorganization and emerge from bankruptcy. We were also honored that the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association turned to us this year to defend it in massive, multidistrict litigation challenging certain foundational aspects of the Blue Cross Blue Shield System—one of the largest class actions in the country. We have represented several member plans in the litigation over recent years and it is always the greatest compliment for a client to call on us to expand our relationship.
