Case Details
Florida’s Fourth District Court of Appeal upheld a Palm County Circuit Court’s final judgment granting summary judgment for five defendants on causation in an asbestos/chemical exposure case. The court found the plaintiff's benzene exposure constituted a 'small fraction' of his lifetime exposure, not enough to establish causation under Florida's standard.
Additional Notes
Florida’s Fourth District Court of Appeal upheld summary judgment for five defendants in a toxic torts case, finding insufficient causation evidence where plaintiff's benzene exposure was a 'small fraction' of lifetime exposure.
