Why is this News?

AP is reporting that Alito Once a Defendant in Crash Lawsuit. In 2000 his wife was in a car accident, he wasn't in the car, the other party sued. They settled out of court and that was that. Why is this news?

He properly reported it on his questionnaire under the "were you ever named in a lawsuit" (he was named as the owner of the car). So there isn't even a cover-up angle to this.

I don't get it. No wonder no one good wants to run for public office.
