First Chinese drywall verdict awards damages to homeowners
Monday, April 12, 2010
Associated Press: In the first in a series of federal lawsuits brought by homeowners whose homes have been ruined by sulfur-emitting Chinese drywall, U.S. District Judge Eldon Fallon awarded seven Virginia families $2.6 million in damages. Cain Burdeau and Michael Kunzelman report the ruling “could set the standard for what needs to be done to make a tainted home fit for living in. Fallon’s guidelines went further than those put out by the Consumer Product Safety Commission earlier this month.”
