from ny1: Five airlines and airline-maker Boeing have filed 9/11-related lawsuits in Manhattan Federal Court against the CIA and the FBI.
The airlines say they need the agents' testimony to defend themselves against lawsuits which say they were to blame for the 9/11 attacks.
Forty-one cases were filed on behalf of 42 victims, because some of them decided to sue the airlines rather than accept payouts from the September 11th Victim's Compensation Fund.
The first trials are scheduled to begin next month.
