Justice Department attorneys and victims’ family members and their lawyers spoke for about two hours on Sunday, lawyers said.

Boeing declined to comment, and it wasn’t immediately clear if it would accept a plea deal. The Justice Department didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

The DOJ said in May that it was reviewing whether Boeing violated a 2021 settlement that protected Boeing from federal charges. The company agreed to pay a $2.5 billion penalty for a conspiracy charge tied to the 2018 and 2019 crashes of its best-selling 737 Max planes, which killed all 346 people on the two flights.

The DOJ revisited the agreement after a door panel blew out of a new 737 Max 9 midair during an Alaska Airlines flight in January, sparking a new safety and quality control crisis for one of the world’s two suppliers of large commercial airplanes.

Boeing admitted two of its pilots defrauded the Federal Aviation Administration by concealing its addition of a new flight-control system to the planes before they were flown commercially. That system was later implicated in the two crashes, the DOJ said in 2021.
