RE: New York City Asbestos Litigation
Kevin K. Maloney and Karen Maloney v. Amchem Products, Inc., et al.
Index No. 190142/2018
MDMC File No.: V0105-3487
Dear Ms. DeCicco:
As you are aware, this firm represents defendant Flowserve US, Inc., solely as successor to
Rockwell Manufacturing Company, Edward Valves, Inc., Nordstrom Valves, Inc., and Edward Vogt
Valve Company ("Flowserve US"), in the above referenced matter. Based upon our review of all
discovery served in this matter and deposition testimony taken to date, it isour belief that there is
no identification of any product manufactured by Flowserve US. Therefore, in accordance with
the Amended CMO (Moulton, J.) dated June 20, 2017 Re: Unopposed Summary Judgment
Motion and Order ("USJM"), I request that you kindly execute the enclosed USJM and return
the original to my attention in the enclosed envelope within ten days as provided for by the June
20, 2017, Amended Case Management Order.
Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions. Thank you for your
courtesies.
Very truly yours,
McELROY, DEUTSCH, MU VANEY & CARPENTER, LLP
