Pa. appellate judge rules that every exposure theory insufficient in asbestos case

PHILADELPHIA (Legal Newsline) – A Pennsylvania appellate court affirmed that a former refinery worker failed to provide enough evidence proving his late wife’s third-party mesothelioma resulted from the defendant’s products.

Judge Eugene Strassburger delivered the opinion in the Superior Court of Pennsylvania on April 24 affirming the lower court’s decision to grant summary judgment to two defendants in a third-party asbestos lawsuit.
