Re: Daniel Kay Asbestosis Complaint
Dear Phil:
As you advised by phone, I am attaching a copy of the Summons and Complaint between Daniel Kay, Plaintiff, and Cement Asbestos Products Company, Defendant, regarding a claim for alleged asbestosis disability. Since this is our first claim that is health related under workman's compensation, I want to apprise all those concerned of this case.
This case is being handled by Liberty Mutual Insurance Company, P. 0. Box 4026, Atlanta, Georgia 30302, phone 404-873-6611. Their Mr. Russell Farmer in the Birmingham office, phone 205-879-8561, has advised me that they have answered the Summons to meet the date requirements.
I will keep you informed periodically as to the status of this case.
Sincerely,
WHB:mf

Re: Daniel Ray Kay Asbestosis Case C547-78198
Dear Mr. Farmer:
Please advise me when you are to the point of turning over the ref erenced case to an attorney. I would like to make him aware of the data bank regarding asbestos cases that have been assembled under the direction of the Asbestos Information Association.
The firm of Cadwalader, Wickersham, and Taft, Washington, D.C., should be contacted to provide information that would be valuable if this case goes to trial.
Please inform me of the status of this case on a regular basis; and keep in mind that we want to resist settling this case all the way to court, if necessary.
Sincerely,
