Doe v. Manheimer

1 Citing brief

  1. Lukowicz v. General Electric Company et al

    MOTION for Summary Judgment

    Filed December 1, 2016

    In determining proximate cause, the point beyond which the law declines to trace a series of events that exist along a chain signifying actual causation is a matter of fair judgment and a rough sense of justice. Doe v. Manheimer, 212 Conn. 748, 757-8 (1989). Proof of causation in any product- related claim under Connecticut law demands, at a minimum, that "a plaintiff must: 1) identify an asbestos-containing product for which a defendant is responsible, 2) prove that he has suffered damages, and 3) prove that defendant's asbestos-containing product was a substantial factor in causing his damages."
