$330-Million Suit Against General Dynamics Is Dismissed: A U.S. District Court judge in Manhattan has dismissed a $330-million lawsuit filed against General Dynamics by the U.S. government in 1985. The federal government charged that General Dynamics gave false cost estimates for ship construction when it applied for federal shipbuilding subsidies in the 1970s. But the government “failed to carry its burden of proof” in the case, the judge said.
