Penn v. Amchem Prods

In Penn v. Amchem Prods., (85 AD3d 475 [1st Dept 2011]) the plaintiff testified that visible dust emanated from dental liners on which he worked as a dental student, and his expert testified that the dust "must have contained enough asbestos to cause his mesothelioma." Finding this evidence sufficient to sustain the jury verdict, the Appellate Division reversed the trial court's contrary determination, relying on Matter of New York City Asbestos Litig. (Marshall) (Id.).
