RESPONSE TO SPECIAL INTERROGATORY NO. 1: Plaintiff objects that this Interrogatory
is over broad, vague, and ambiguous as to undefined terms including, but not limited to
“Sncident”and “identity”
Plaintiff objects that this Interrogatory is compound, conjunctive, and contains subparts,
in violation of C.C.P. § 2030.060.
Plaintiff objects to this Interrogatory on the grounds, and to the extent, that it seeks
documents protected by the attomey-client privilege and/or the attorney work-product doctrine.
Plaintiff further objects on the grounds, and to the extent, that this Interrogatory seeks the
premature disclosure of documents within the possession of plaintiff’ s retained expert
consultants in violation of C.C.P. § 2034.210.
Plaintiff further objects to this Interrogatory upon the ground that it violates Code of
Civil Procedure § 2017.010 in that defendant improperly seeks information not relevant to the
subject matter of the action. Furthermore, defendant improperly seeks information that is not
likely to lead to discovery of admissible evidence because no logical inference of liability can
be drawn therefrom. Moreover, plaintiff is waiting for defendant to submit its responses to

plaintiff's Standard Interrogatories to all defendants, as ordered by San Francisco Superior
Court General Order No. 129, paragraph 4.B., which were due on 120 days after the complaint
was served.
Subject to the foregoing objections and without waiver thereof, plaintiff respond as
follows: Plaintiff’s claims for damages will be presented by plaintiff's retained litigation
consultants pursuant to C.C.P. § 2034.010 et seq., at the appropriate time before trial. Plaintiff
further refers defendant to plaintiff's medical records and billings which are equally available to
defendants through coordinating defense counsel, Berry & Berry, pursuant to C.C.P. §
2030.220(c), plaintiff, after making a reasonable and good-faith effort to obtain the information
by inquiry to other natural persons or organizations, believes that there is no further relevant
and/or responsive information to disclose at this time. Plaintiff reserves the right to supplement
this Response as investigation and discovery are continuing.
RESPONSE TO SPECIAL INTERROGATORY NO. 2: Plaintiff objects to this Interrogatory
on the grounds, and to the extent, that it seeks documents protected by the attorney-client
privilege and/or the attorney work-product doctrine.
Furthermore, defendant improperly seeks information that is not likely to lead to
discovery of admissible evidence because no logical inference of liability can be drawn
therefrom. Moreover, plaintiff is waiting for defendant to submit its responses to plaintiff's
Standard Interrogatories to all defendants, as ordered by San Francisco Superior Court General
Order No. 129, paragraph 4.B., which were due on 120 days after the complaint was served.
Subject to the foregoing objections and without waiver thereof, plaintiff respond as
follows: During his career as a wiper, oiler and specially during his career as a steamfitter at
several locations, plaintiff installed, removed, and performed maintenance work on asbestos-
containing NIBCO and CRANE valves. Plaintiff recalls doing maintenance on new and old
valves. Plaintiff replaced gaskets and internal packing. Plaintiff recalls when he worked on the
valves, he opened the valves and checked the packing material, and often replaced the packing
rings. This asbestos-containing packing rings were manufactured by defendant LINDSTROM
& KING Co, INC. By so doing, plaintiff breathed the toxic levels of asbestos-laden dust that
was released into the ambient air.
LINDSTROM & KING CO. INC. knew that it’s asbestos-containing products, would be
open, handled, broken and otherwise disturbed and manipulated, resulting in the release of
airborne asbestos fibers, and that through such foreseeable use and/or handling, plaintiff would
be exposed to such asbestos fibers. Defendant did not warn plaintiff that toxic levels of
asbestos-laden dust would be released into the ambient air. As a result of defendant’s conduct,
plaintiff was exposed to asbestos fibers and dust released into the ambient air from
asbestos-containing products. Consequently, plaintiff was exposed to and breathed asbestos
fibers and dust and developed an asbestos-related injury.
The hazards associated with exposure to asbestos and the effect of asbestos exposure
have been well documented since last century. As early as the 1930s, there existed a wealth of
information available for defendant which evidences that exposure to asbestos and asbestos-
containing products was a health hazard. California promulgated industrial safety standards for
workmen around asbestos-containing products beginning in the 1930s. By 1937, California
listed asbestosis as a compensable disease under Workers’ Compensation laws. Numerous
articles and studies relating to the health hazards of exposure to asbestos have appeared in
medical and scientific literature since the turn of the 20 century and have also been
summarized in various publications. Additionally, safety orders have existed since the 1940s
regarding the control of asbestos dust in the workplace. Therefore, defendant knew or should
have known of the health hazards associated with exposure to asbestos and asbestos-containing
products prior to their manufacture, distribution, sale, and supply, and failed to take available
safety precautions.

Defendant, as a manufacturer, supplier and/or distributor of asbestos-containing
products, owed a duty to exercise due care to foreseeable users of Products sold, supplied and/or
distributed by defendant. Further, defendant failed to warn plaintiff as a consumer of the
dangers inherent in these products. Defendant also breached its duties by supplying and
distributing products which were defective in that they caused asbestos-containing fibers to be
released into the ambient air when said products were used in a foreseeable manner by
foreseeable users. The defect existed in the defendant's products at the time they left the
possession of defendants. Further, defendant failed to adequately warm of the risks to which
plaintiff and other similarly-situated users, consumers and bystanders were exposed and failed
to appropriately label such products of the dangers inherent in said products. Defendant’s
conduct was willful, malicious, and done with a wanton disregard for plaintiff’s safety and the
safety of other consumers. After a reasonable and good-faith inquiry, plaintiff presently has no
further information responsive to this Interrogatory. Plaintiff’s investigation and discovery are
continuing. Plaintiff expressly reserves the night to amend this Response pending the outcome
of plaintiff's investigation.
RESPONSE TO SPECIAL INTERROGATORY NO. 3: Plaintiff objects to this Interrogatory
on the grounds, and to the extent, that it seeks documents protected by the attorney-client
privilege and/or the attorney work-product doctrine.
Furthermore, defendant improperly seeks information that is not likely to lead to
discovery of admissible evidence because no logical inference of liability can be drawn
therefrom. Moreover, plaintiff is waiting for defendant to submit its responses to plaintiff's
Standard Interrogatories to all defendants, as ordered by San Francisco Superior Court General
Order No. 129, paragraph 4.B., which were due on 120 days after the complaint was served.
Subject to the foregoing objections and without waiver thereof, plaintiff respond as
follows: Plaintiff incorporates by reference his Response to Interrogatory No. 2 above.
Pursuant to C.C.P. § 2031.230, plaintiff, after making a diligent search and reasonable
inquiry to obtain the information by inquiry to other natural persons or organizations, believes
that he has no further relevant and/or responsive documents to produce at this time. Plaintiff
reserves the right to supplement this Response, as investigation and discovery are continuing
and plaintiff has not completed preparation for trial.
RESPONSE TO SPECIAL INTERROGATORY NO. 4: Plaintiff objects to this Interrogatory
on the grounds that it is vague and ambiguous, particularly with regard to the use of undefined
