After Energy Transfer’s (formerly Energy Transfer Partners) lawsuit against Greenpeace entities and others was dismissed in federal court, the company brought another lawsuit in North Dakota state court against the Greenpeace entities, Krystal Two Bulls, Charles Brown, and other defendants. The complaint includes similar state claims alleged in the prior federal action, but also adds property based claims related to the protest against the Dakota Access Pipeline in North Dakota. As part of this lawsuit, Energy Transfer has issued subpoenas against several individuals and groups involved in the resistance movement at Standing Rock, including Water Protector Legal Collective and Unicorn Riot.
