Beverly Eckert notably refused and stated that "My silence cannot be bought". She died in February 2009 in a small plane crash. Lawyer Michael H. Doran was working with families who rejected the government's offer when he died in a plane crash on April 28, 2009.

Manhattan based US District Judge George Daniels has issued various ruling about 9-11

Stanley Hilton attempted to prosecute cabal members for their involvement, but was told that since they were employed by the US government, they had "sovereign immunity" from such lawsuits.

Saudi Arabia

US trial judges twice ruled that Saudi Arabia is immune from prosecution under the federal Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, but in 2013, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York revived a lawsuit in light of a 2011 decision that had allowed similar claims to proceed against Afghanistan.

2015:- "Sovereign immunity"

In September 2015, George Daniels ruled further that Saudi Arabia had "sovereign immunity" from prosecution in regard to 9-11.[5]
