LAWRENCE JUDY (State Bar No. 53842) 2 600 South Lake Avenue Second Floor 3 Pasadena, California 91106-3955 (626) 585-4150 4 Attorneys for Defendant, 5 THE FLINTKOTE COMPANY 6 7 SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA 8 FOR THE COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO 9 10 11 IN RE:COMPLEX ASBESTOS ) LITIGATION ) 12 ) ) 13 ) ) 14 ) ____________ __________________ ) 15 No. 828 684 RESPONSES TO PLAINTIFFS' STANDARD INTERROGATORIES TO ALL DEFENDANTS 16 17 Defendant, The Flintkote Company, responds to Plaintiffs' 18 Standard Interrogatories To All Defendants, Exhibit I to General 19 Order No. 129, as follows: 20 GENERAL OBJECTIONS 21 1. Flintkote objects to the "Preface", and each part 22 thereof, and the "Definitions", and each paragraph thereof, that 23 precede the interrogatories on the basis that each, in and of 24 itself and when incorporated into the interrogatories, is 25 overbroad, is uncertain, is unduly burdensome, seeks information 26 protected by the attorney client privilege and attorney work 27 product doctrine, and seeks information that is neither relevant 28 nor calculated to lead to the discovery of relevant or admissible 91.92000/DISCOVERY/INTEROGS.129 1 1 evidence. 2 2. To the extent that these interrogatories and the 3 provisions of General Order No. 129 pertaining to these 4 interrogatories do not comply with the applicable provisions of 5 the California Code of Civil Procedure, Flintkote objects to 6 these interrogatories and those provisions of General Order 7 No. 129. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, 8 Flintkote refers to and incorporates here by this reference as 9 though set forth in full the provisions of Code of Civil 10 Procedure Sections 575.1, 2017, 2019 and 2030. 11 3. Flintkote objects to these interrogatories, and each of 12 them, to the extent that they purport to impose upon this 13 defendant a duty to search for information beyond the scope of 14 that set forth in the California Code of Civil Procedure. 15 4. Flintkote objects to these interrogatories, and each of 16 them, to the extent that they purport to require this defendant 17 to annually update its responses. 18 5. Flintkote objects to these interrogatories, and each of 19 them, to the extent that they purport to enlarge the time period 20 set forth in Code of Civil Procedure Section 2030(1). 21 6. Flintkote objects generally to the definition of 22 "defendant" and "alternate entities" as each is overbroad, is not 23 reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible 24 evidence, and renders the interrogatories propounded incapable of 25 precise answer. Responses are made on behalf of The Flintkote 26 Company and its divisions that manufactured or sold asbestos- 27 containing products. 28 7. Flintkote objects to each of these interrogatories to 91.92000/DISCOVERY/INTEROGS.129 2 1 the extent that the time period for which information is 2 requested is not limited in scope so as to be reasonably 3 calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. 4 8. Flintkote objects to each of these interrogatories to 5 the extent they solicit information concerning asbestos- 6 containing products manufactured or sold by Flintkote to which no 7 known plaintiff claims exposure. 8 9. Flintkote objects to these interrogatories to the extent 9 that they seek information that is not within the personal 10 knowledge of its current employees. All of the plants in which 11 Flintkote manufactured asbestos-containing products have been 12 closed or sold. None of the persons with personal knowledge of 13 the events relating to the production and sale of products are 14 currently in Flintkote's employ. 15 In an effort to overcome these limitations, Flintkote's 16 counsel has conducted a reasonable search of records and inquiry 17 of available persons. Flintkote has responded in good faith to 18 these interrogatories based on available information. Because of 19 these 'limitations on Flintkote's information, the responses that 20 follow are based only on the information and belief of the person 21 verifying these responses. The statements contained in these re 22 sponses, therefore, are not and cannot be deemed admissible 23 evidence under the Rules of Evidence as nonhearsay facts asserted 24 by a party with first-hand knowledge. Flintkote continues to 25 investigate and reserves the right to introduce additional 26 evidence at trial which is produced in the course of its further 27 investigation or review of information. 28 10. Flintkote objects to these interrogatories because they 91.92000/DISCOVERY/INTEROGS.129 3 1 impermissibly seek to shift to this defendant the plaintiff's 2 burden of identifying the products and/or manufacturers at issue. 3 11. Flintkote objects to these interrogatories to the 4 extent they seek information relating to sales of 5 asbestos-containing products by Flintkote to any entity or 6 entities other than those specifically identified by any known 7 plaintiff as having been in the chain of distribution of an 8 asbestos-containing product from Flintkote to any known 9 plaintiff. As a manufacturer and seller only, Flintkote had no 10 discretion to determine the method and manner of use of its 11 asbestos-containing products, nor does it have any knowledge of 12 whether any asbestos-containing product was resold by any entity 13 to a particular plaintiff. Such information, if any, and if 14 discoverable at all, must come from the particular plaintiff. 15 12. Flintkote objects to these interrogatories to the 16 extent that they seek disclosures of information generated by 17 persons other than Flintkote that has come into the possession of 18 Flintkote's counsel during the course of discovery and trial 19 preparation in asbestos-related litigation, and which is 20 protected from disclosure by the attorney-client privilege and/or 21 the work-product doctrine. 22 13. Flintkote objects to these interrogatories to the 23 extent that they seek information relating to Flintkote employees 24 and/or manufacturing facilities, which are not the subject of any 25 pending litigation in this jurisdiction to which Flintkote is a 26 party. Information relating to the Flintkote's manufacturing 27 facilities and employees is neither relevant nor reasonably 28 calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. See. 91.92000/DISCOVERY/INTEROGS.129 4 1 e.q.. Lohrman v . Pittsburgh-Coming Corp., 782 F.2d 1156, 1156 2 (4th Cir. 1986); Martin v.

This interrogatory is overbroad, 22 unduly burdensome and calls for information that is neither 23 relevant nor reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of 24 admissible evidence. Without waiving any objections, See Exhibit 25 D. 26 Exhibit D includes information regarding the period of 27 manufacture, sale, and/or distribution of each product, the 28 asbestos content, and a description of the uses of the products. 91.92000/DISCOVERY/INTEROGS. 129 26 1 With the exception of asbestos-cement pipe, which was not sold in 2 California or contiguous states, all of Flintkote's asbestos- 3 containing products contained chrysotile fiber. For any specific 4 Flintkote asbestos-containing product(s) to which any plaintiff 5 contends he was exposed, Flintkote will endeavor to provide the 6 information requested for that product, upon notice from counsel 7 for plaintiff. 8 (i) Objection. This subpart is overbroad, unduly burdensome 9 and calls for information that is neither relevant nor reasonably 10 calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. 11 Without waiving any objections, Flintkote states that its sales 12 records are not segregated by geographic region. For any 13 particular agency, entity(ies), distributor, contractor, 14 supplier, manufacturer, ship owner, refinery identified by 15 plaintiff as having supplied Flintkote's asbestos-containing 16 products to a specific job site in the 46 counties of Northern 17 California, Flintkote will search its records to determine what, 18 if any, asbestos-containing products were supplied to said 19 entity(ies), upon notice from counsel for plaintiff. 20 Further, pursuant to its record retention policy, Flintkote 21 generally maintains sales information for the years subsequent to 22 1970. Certain sales records have been located that pre-date 1971. - 23 Some of these records may relate to sales of asbestos-containing 24 products to certain Flintkote customers. The available pre-1971 25 records do not reflect sales of asbestos-containing products to 26 of any of the military facilities in the State of California 27 specifically identified in the definition of "geographic area". A 28 review of records for the years subsequent to 1970 did not 91.92000/DISCOVER/INTEROGS.129 27 1 indicate the sale of asbestos-containing products to any of the 2 military facilities with the exception of Long Beach Naval 3 Shipyard. Flintkote sold $157.05 of Static-Asphalt Fibrated and 4 $166.40 of an asphalt cutback to Long Beach Naval Shipyard in 5 1979. 6 (j) Copies of responsive material are attached. 7 INTERROGATORY NO. 32: (Premises Defendants only) Did 8 you install, remove, or handle or contract to have others 9 install, remove, or handle raw asbestos or asbestos-containing 10 products at any premises in the geographic area which premises is 11 at issue as to you in San Francisco Superior Court asbestos 12 litigation as of the date of your answers to these 13 interrogatories?

If so, state the relevant 16 time period. 17 RESPONSE: Objection. See response to Interrogatory No. 31, 18 subpart (i), incorporated by reference herein. Without waiving 19 any objections, Flintkote states that to the best of its 20 knowledge, Flintkote did not enter into any exclusive 21 distributorship agreements. 22 INTERROGATORY NO. 35: If this defendant entered into any 23 agreements for the rebranding of any asbestos-containing products 24 by this defendant for resale or distribution by another person or 25 entity, describe each agreement's terms and the parties to said 26 agreement, the duration of the agreement, and name of each 27 product(s) and/or material(s) covered by each such agreement. 28 RESPONSE: Objection. This interrogatory is overbroad, unduly 91.92000/DISCOVERY/INTEROGS.129 32 1 burdensome and calls for information that is neither relevant nor 2 reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible 3 evidence. Without waiving any objections, see Exhibit E. 4 INTERROGATORY N O . 36; If this defendant entered into any 5 agreements for the rebranding of asbestos-containing products 6 manufactured, sold, supplied or distributed by another person or 7 entity for resale or distribution by you, describe each of the 8 agreements and the parties to said agreement, the terms, the 9 duration, and the names of each product(s) and/or material(s) 10 covered by each such agreement. 11 RESPONSE: Objection. This interrogatory is overbroad, 12 unduly burdensome and calls for information that is neither 13 relevant nor reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of 14 admissible evidence. Without waiving any objections, see Exhibit 15 F. 16 INTERROGATORY NO. 37: As to raw asbestos and to each such 17 asbestos-containing product listed in your responses to 18 Interrogatories No. 29 and 31 did defendant warn of the health 19 hazards of asbestos?

This interrogatory is overbroad, unduly 5 burdensome and calls for information that is neither relevant nor 6 reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible 7 evidence. Flintkote further states that the asbestos contained 8 in its asbestos-containing products is encapsulated or "bound 9 into* the products and therefore cannot be the proximate cause of 10 any health hazard. Without waiving any objections: 11 (a) - (c) See Exhibits G and H for warnings related to 12 asbestos. To the best of its knowledge, the warning contained in 13 Exhibit H was inserted into cartons of floor tile beginning in 14 1977. 15 (d) None to its knowledge. 16 (e) See the response to interrogatory 10. 17 INTERROGATORY NO. 38: With respect to each of your 18 asbestos-containing products, state whether this defendant's 19 name, a trademark, logos, color coding, or other identifying 20 markings ever appeared on the actual product itself.

This interrogatory is over broad, 24 unduly burdensome and calls for information that is neither 25 relevant nor reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of 26 admissible evidence. Without waiving any objections, Flintkote 27 states that for any specific Flintkote asbestos-containing 28 product(s) to which any plaintiff contends he was exposed, 91.92000/DISCOVERY/INTEROGS.129 36 1 Flintkote will endeavor to provide the requested advertising 2 naterials, upon notice from counsel for plaintiff. 3 INTERROGATORY NO. 42: State if you have or had within your 4 corporate or other business structure any contract units. 5 RESPONSE: No, 6 INTERROGATORY NO. 43: State whether or not any of your 7 contract units installed and/or removed raw asbestos and/or 8 asbestos-containing products in the geographic area at any time 9 between 1930 and 1985.

This interrogatory is vague and seeks 91.92000/ DISCOVERY /1NTEROGS.129 37 1 expert opinion in specialized areas where Flintkote claims no 2 expertise. Flintkote also objects to this interrogatory because 3 it reduces a very complex issue to oversimplified terms. Further, 4 this interrogatory as worded fails to consider several critical 5 variables which may be factors in the development of asbestos- 6 related disease. This interrogatory also is objectionable to the 7 extent it seeks information concerning exposure to raw asbestos 8 in manufacturing settings, as opposed to the end-user scenario as 9 is at issue in this case. 10 Without waiving any objections, Flintkote states that 11 whatever information it has obtained over the years relating to 12 asbestos-related disease has dealt almost exclusively with 13 different fiber types or sizes than that used by Flintkote. 14 Further, the information dealt with heavy, long-term occupational 15 exposures at levels thousands of times greater than those 16 conceivably attributable to Flintkote's asbestos-containing 17 products. 18 The Flintkote Company is unable to provide any particular 19 date when it first learned of the allegations that asbestos is 20 hazardous to health. It is the position of The Flintkote company 21 that generally, the asbestos contained in its products is 22 encapsulated; therefore, respirable asbestos fibers are not 23 released from those products into the ambient air. Further, it is 24 the position of The Flintkote Company that its asbestos- 25 containing products are not the proximate cause of any health 26 problems. 27 INTERROGATORY WO. 45: How do you contend that this 28 defendant first became aware that there is an association between 91.92000/DISCOVERY/ INTEROGS .129 38 1 asbestos exposure and disease in human beings. 2 RESPONSE; Objection. See response to Interrogatory No. 44. 3 INTERROGATORY NO. 46: Either (1) attach all documents 4 evidencing the information upon which your contentions in your 5 answers to Interrogatories No. 44 and No. 45 are based, or 6 (2) attach disks containing such data or (3) describe such 7 documents with sufficient particularity that they may be made the 8 subject of a request for production of documents. 9 RESPONSE: See the response to interrogatory 44. 10 INTERROGATORY NO. 47: When did this defendant first warn 11 its employees that exposure to asbestos could be hazardous to 12 human health? State; 13 (a) Whether the first such warning was written or oral; 14 (b) Whether copies of documents containing such warning 15 exist; 16 (c) The identity of the custodian of such documents; 17 (d) The content of the warning. 18 RESPONSE: Objection. This interrogatory is over broad, 19 unduly burdensome and calls for information that is neither 20 relevant nor reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of 21 admissible evidence. Flintkote employees are not the subject of 22 this litigation. 23 INTERROGATORY NO. 48: Did this defendant ever issue a 24 written company policy discontinuing warning its employees that 25 exposure to asbestos could be hazardous to human health? If so, 26 (a) Provide the date; 27 (b) Describe the circumstances; and 28 (c) Either (1) attach all documents evidencing the 91.9 2OOO/DISCOVERY/INTEROGS.129 39 1 information sought in this Interrogatory and its subparts to your 2 answers to these Interrogatories, or (2) attach disks containing 3 such data, or (3) describe such documents with sufficient 4 particularity that they may be made the subject of a request for 5 production of documents. 6 RESPONSE; Objection.

Those areas norm ally exposed to heavy foot traf fic patterns usually have tiles adhered the tightest. As a matter o f good practice In starting the tile removal, those sections w hich receive least traffic should be the locations selected for starting the removal o f th e tile. Since tiles are norm ally in a 9" X 9" or 1 2 ' X 12" dim ension, it should be the goal to rem ove individual tiles as a com plete unit. b. Start the rem oval by carefully w edging the wall acraper in th e seam o f tw o adjoining tiles and gradually forcing the edge o f on e o f the tiles up and away from the floor (see Sketch 15). D o not break o ff pieces o f the tile but continue to force the balance c f th e file u p b y w orking the acraper beneath the file and exerting both a forward pressure and a tw isting action on the blade to pro m ote release o f the tile from the adhesive and the floor. 14 c.

Force the wall sa a p e i under the exposed edge o f another tile and c o n tin u e to exert a prying twisting force to th e acrap er as it is m oved under the file until the file releases from the floor. Again, dispose of the file , and succeeding files by placing in the heavy d u ty bag o r d o sed container without additional break- h- e . Som e files w ill release quite easily while others re quire varying degrees o f force. Where th e a d e u v t is spread heavily or is quite hard.
