Chevron USA Inc. v. Plaquemines Parish · ¶31

Several defendants removed the suits against them under the federal officer removal statute. 28 U. S. C. § 1442(a)(1). The removal effort focused on the connection between these 1940s allegations and the defendants' 1940s federal contracts. Because the allegations concerned their 1940s crude-oil production, the defendants argued that the suits “relat[ed] to” their contractual duties to refne crude oil into avgas for the military at the same time.
