Case Details

Two former Kentucky coal miners with black lung were awarded $5 Million for their pain and suffering already endured and for the pain and suffering expected in the years ahead. The remaining award amount came from punitive damages leveled against 3M for their defective dust masks.

Additional Notes

A Knott County Circuit Court Jury handed down the verdict in April of 2018. Lawyers for the plaintiffs earned a victory for their clients by filing claims of product liability and alleging design and marketing defects.
