AMOROSO CONSTRUCTION CO., INC.’S NOTICE OF MOTION FOR SUMMARY SUDGMENT OR, ALTERNATIVELY, SUMMARY ADJUDICATION28 BUTY RCURLANO LLP Sh 12Sracer ‘Sue 1 OAKLAND, CA 95607 "510.287 8000 Amoroso is entitled to summary judgment pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure 437¢ because plaintiffs cannot establish Amoroso’s employees were negligent when they disturbed purportedly asbestos-containing materials in plaintiff Robert Ross’s presence. Alternatively, Amoroso seeks summary adjudication on plaintiffs’ Second Cause of action for Strict Liability because Amoroso was not in the business of selling asbestos products. Amoroso also seeks summary adjudication on Jean Ross’s Fourth Cause of Action for Loss of Consortium because it is purely derivative of Mr. Ross’s claims. This motion is based on this notice, memorandum of points and authorities, separate statement of undisputed material facts, declaration of George S. Sullivan and all supporting exhibits, the papers and pleadings on file in this action, and on such other further oral and documentary evidence presented at the hearing on this motion.
