Cuomo, Crane, Navy, Asbestos & Mesothelioma: A recent case in the United States Court of Appeals, Second Circuit ruled on an appeal of a motion to remand.
The Cuomo, Crane, Navy, Asbestos & Mesothelioma case documents what many navy vets and aboard U.S. navy ships (e.g., boilerman) may face today – past potential direct and secondary exposure to asbestos and mesothelioma. The court ruled on the motion.
