BEIJING (AP) — A Beijing court has ruled Malaysia Airlines must pay 2.9 million yuan ($410,000) each to the families of eight passengers who went missing in the disappearance of Flight 370 more than a decade ago.
The court ordered the airline to pay each family compensation for the death of their loved one, funeral expenses, and damages stemming from emotional distress, it said in a statement Monday. Although it is not known what happened to the passengers, they have been declared legally dead.
There were 239 passengers and crew members on the flight that disappeared after departing Kuala Lumpur for Beijing in 2014. Despite years of searches, it's unknown why the plane went down or what happened to the people on board. Most of the passengers were Chinese, and their families in China have continued to seek answers.
The court said that another 23 cases remain pending. In 47 other cases, families have reached agreements with the airlines and withdrawn their suits.
Last Wednesday, the Malaysian government said a search for the plane would resume Dec. 30.

SEATTLE (AP) — Joel Eriksson Ek had a goal and two assists, and the Minnesota Wild scored three times in the third period to beat the Seattle Kraken 4-1 on Monday night.
Marcus Johansson, Kirill Kaprizov and Vladimir Tarasenko also scored to help the Wild snap a two-game skid that followed a 12-game point streak (10-0-2). Filip Gustavsson stopped 23 shots to help the Wild snap a two-game skid.
Jordan Eberle scored and Philipp Grubauer finished with 25 saves as the Kraken lost their sixth straight — fifth straight in regulation.
Johansson gave the Wild a 2-1 lead at 8:12 of the third period, deflecting Eriksson Ek's centering pass past Grubauer.
Tye Kartye appeared to get the tying goal minutes shortly after, but it was overturned on review for high sticking on the play.
Kaprizov had an empty-netter for his 18th goal of the season with 1:15 remaining, and Tarasenko added another 24 seconds later to seal the Wild's win.
The Wild took a 1-0 lead 1:18 into the second period. Matt Boldy brought the puck around the back of the net and sent a pass from behind the goal line in front and Eriksson Ek put it past Grubauer.
Eberle tied it with a power-play goal at 6:48 from the left doorstep off a pass from Chandler Stephenson. It was Eberle's ninth of the season.
The Wild outshot the Kraken 10-8 in a scoreless first period. Minnesota had two power plays in the period, and Seattle one.
Wild: Host Dallas on Thursday night to open a four-game homestand.
Kraken: Host Los Angeles on Wednesday night.
