Burford v. Howmet Aerospace, Inc., 693 S.W.3d 756 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2024, pet. filed)

Convinced court of appeals to reverse summary judgment on causation in an asbestos case, finding that plaintiff raised a fact issue on direct causation where there were no other “plausible sources” of asbestos exposure and “reliable expert testimony show[ed] that only exposure to asbestos can cause asbestosis” and that Alcoa was the source of all the asbestos to which plaintiff was exposed.
