A California utility giant must face trial for manslaughter for its role in a 2020 wildfire that killed four people.
It is the latest legal trouble for Pacific Gas & Electric, which has been blamed for a series of deadly wildfires in the state in recent years.
A judge found prosecutors had presented enough evidence during a preliminary hearing for the company to stand trial.
An investigation revealed it began when a pine tree fell on power lines belonging to PG&E. The utility giant says that it recognized its equipment had caused the fire but denied criminal wrongdoing.
