A US judge has ruled that Exxon Mobil can proceed with its lawsuit against the activist investor group Arjuna Capital. The lawsuit, filed in January, seeks to bar a climate resolution proposed by the group. However, the judge ruled that Exxon cannot pursue its claim against another activist group, Netherlands-based Follow This. The ruling allows Exxon to challenge the climate proposal even after Arjuna Capital withdrew its shareholder proposal.
