KFI a.m. 640. You're listening to the John Cobalt podcast on the IHeart Radio app.

We are on every day from 1 until 4 o'clock. And then after 4 o'clock, what have you missed?

John Colbert's show On Demand on the IHeart app. It's the podcast version.

And that'll be posted shortly after 4 o'clock. Let's get Roger Bailey on here.

He's an attorney.

We have had him on a number of times already.

He's involved in lawsuits representing Palisades residents against the LADWP because of the fire.

You know, there's two fronts to this legal fight.

One is the infamous reservoir that was empty.

And then there were LADWP power lines that collapsed on brush and started a second fire.

And that happened 12 hours after the start of the original fire.

So this may have come in two waves and both lead to LADWP culpability.

Let's get Roger Bailey on here because there are a couple of judges now that have joined the lawsuit after losing their homes.

Roger, how are you?

I'm good, John. How are you doing?

I'm good. You got Jay Gandy, a retired federal judge, and he's got a background as mediating settlements

when it comes to wildfires.

So I found it interesting that he joined the lawsuit because with his legal mind, his specific

experience, you know, he must have seen something in all the information that's being

gathered that convinced him that DWP is the central figure if you're looking for culpability.

Talk about that.

Sure.
