California Court of Appeal

In a suit against a number of automotive parts manufacturers for injuries alleged to have been caused by secondary exposure to asbestos or asbestos-containing materials, alleging plaintiff suffered this exposure from asbestos contamination brought into his home by his father, a mechanic, and from asbestos released from the mechanical components during times he visited his father at work, the trial court's grant of summary judgment to defendant manufacturers is affirmed where plaintiff did not have and could not obtain evidence that he or his father were exposed to asbestos from their products.
