In closely watched and widely publicized toxic-tort litigation that has percolated through the courts for more than a decade, federal appeals judges this
(CN) A Florida man is asking a three-judge panel of the 11th Circuit to revive his lawsuit claiming that his late wife’s kidney cancer was caused by industrial runoff from a Pratt & Whitney aerospace plant nearby their marital home in a rural South Florida community.
More than a decade deep into the litigation, Marcos Pinares took his case back to the Miami division of the federal appellate court. He’s fighting to keep his lawsuit alive over Pratty & Whitney’s alleged contamination of the Acreage community in Palm Beach County.
The Acreage was the site of a highly publicized pediatric brain cancer cluster that was confirmed by the Florida Department of Health in 2009. After the cluster was identified, a string of toxic tort lawsuits flowed into South Florida courts, alleging that pollution from Pratt & Whitney’s plant had migrated into the well water of nearby Acreage homes.
