These are lawsuits impacting individuals and institutions that entered into over-the-counter financial derivative and non-derivative instruments directly with 17 banks on the U.S. Dollar LIBOR panel from 2007 to 2010 and that received payments tied to U.S. Dollar LIBOR. The litigation claims that the banks manipulated the U.S. Dollar LIBOR rate during the financial crisis, artificially lowering the rate for their own profit, which resulted in class members receiving lower interest payments for their U.S. Dollar LIBOR-based instruments from the banks than they should have. The Plaintiffs assert antitrust, breach of contract, and unjust enrichment claims. Settlements totaling $340 million were reached with Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft and HSBC Bank plc. Settlements totaling $250 million were also reached with Barclays and Citibank. A Litigation Class continues to assert claims against Bank of America, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.

Reinstates 30-Year Old Asbestos Claims --------------------------------------------------------------- Max Mitchell, writing for The Legal Intelligencer, reported that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has ruled, creating a split among circuits, that a group of shipowners being sued for allegedly exposing sailors to asbestos failed to preserve a 30-year-old jurisdictional challenge. The ruling, issued by a split three-judge panel in In re Asbestos Products Liability Litigation, overruled decisions from the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, and reinstated claims by merchant mariners for an adjudication on the merits decades after they were filed. According to Chief Judge D. Brooks Smith, who wrote the majority's 23-page precedential opinion, the dispute stems from orders a federal judge in Ohio made in 1989, which gave the defendant shipowners the option of either agreeing to be transferred to another jurisdiction, or waiving their personal jurisdictional defense and remaining in the Northern District of Ohio. Although the defendants contended that they never waived their jurisdictional challenge, Smith said the facts of the case, specifically the defendants' objection to transfer and their continued filings in the litigation, indicated otherwise. "Behavior that is consistent with waiver, and which indicates an intent to litigate the case on the merits, is sufficient to constitute a waiver, regardless of whether the parties also express an intent to preserve the defense," Smith said. "By filing pleadings responding to substantive allegations in the merchant mariners' complaints—after [Ohio federal Judge Thomas] Lambros had unequivocally ruled that he did not have jurisdiction—the shipowners chose to actively litigate their case." Motley Rice attorney Louis Bograd, who is representing the sailors, said he was pleased with the ruling. "We think they got it right, and we're gratified by their recognition that the only reasonable reading of the record and the course of conduct back in the early days . . . was that the defendants chose to waive their personal jurisdiction defense," Bograd said. Harold Henderson of Thompson Hine, who is representing the shipowners, said in an emailed statement, "We are disappointed with the ruling because we believe the district court correctly found no waiver of the personal jurisdiction defenses. We will be reviewing options with our clients." The decision sets up a split with the Sixth Circuit, which, in its 2017 decision in Kalama v. Matson Navigation, determined that Lambros acted outside his authority in the way he handled the personal jurisdiction challenge. According to Smith, in the 1980s thousands of sailors sued shipowners in the Northern District of Ohio on a theory of nationwide jurisdiction. Lambros presided over the consolidated litigation until it was transferred to the Eastern District of Pennsylvania in 1991. In 1989, the shipowners challenged jurisdiction and Lambros agreed with the defendants. However, instead of granting the defendants' motion to dismiss, he said he would transfer the cases instead. According to Smith, counsel for the defendants asked for time to make that decision, saying their clients may instead want to waive their jurisdictional defense. At a hearing the following month, the defendants said that, before making a determination on waiving jurisdiction, their clients wanted to see how Lambros would rule on several other issues. The plaintiffs objected, and Lambros eventually told the shipowners to file an answer by the deadline if they wanted to waive the jurisdiction issue. Although the defendants appealed the decision and said they would file answers in the litigation "under protest," Smith said the litigation proceeded for another year under Lambros without any additional motion practice regarding the jurisdictional issue. The Sixth Circuit determined that Lambros did not have the authority to declare that filing an answer would result in waiver. Smith, however, said that, while typically a defendant would raise a personal jurisdiction defense in an answer, the case at issue was anything but typical, since Lambros had already ruled on the issue before answers were filed. "Judge Lambros did not 'strip a defendant of its right to assert an affirmative defense in an answer,'" Smith said. "Instead, having already ruled that he did not have personal jurisdiction over the shipowners, he ruled that continuing to actively litigate the case by submitting an answer would indicate waiver and an intent to proceed in the Northern District of Ohio." ASBESTOS UPDATE: Ampco-Pittsburgh Has $227.9MM Liability Reserve ---------------------------------------------------------------- Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation has US$227,922,000 reserve at December 31, 2018, for the total costs, including defense costs, for Asbestos Liability claims pending or projected to be asserted through 2052, according to the Company's Form 10-K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. The Company states, "In 2006, the Corporation retained Hamilton, Rabinovitz & Associates, Inc. ("HR&A"), a nationally recognized expert in the valuation of asbestos liabilities, to assist the Corporation in estimating the potential liability for pending and unasserted future claims for Asbestos Liability. Based on this analysis, the Corporation recorded a reserve for Asbestos Liability claims pending or projected to be asserted through 2013 as of December 31, 2006. HR&A's analysis has been periodically updated since that time. In 2018, the Corporation engaged Nathan Associates Inc. ("Nathan") to update the liability valuation, and additional reserves were established by the Corporation as of December 31, 2018, for Asbestos Liability claims pending or projected to be asserted through 2052. "The methodology used by Nathan in its projection in 2018 of the operating subsidiaries' liability for pending and unasserted potential future claims for Asbestos Liability, which is substantially the same as the methodology employed by HR&A in prior estimates, relied upon and included the following factors: * interpretation of a widely accepted forecast of the population likely to have been exposed to asbestos; * epidemiological studies estimating the number of people likely to develop asbestos-related diseases; * analysis of the number of people likely to file an asbestos-related injury claim against the subsidiaries and the Corporation based on such epidemiological data and relevant claims history from January 1, 2016, to August 19, 2018; * an analysis of pending cases, by type of injury claimed and jurisdiction where the claim is filed; * an analysis of claims resolution history from January 1, 2016, to August 19, 2018, to determine the average settlement value of claims, by type of injury claimed and jurisdiction of filing; and * an adjustment for inflation in the future average settlement value of claims, at an annual inflation rate based on the Congressional Budget Office's ten year forecast of inflation. "Using this information, Nathan estimated in 2018 the number of future claims for Asbestos Liability that would be filed through the year 2052, as well as the settlement or indemnity costs that would be incurred to resolve both pending and future unasserted claims through 2052. This methodology has been accepted by numerous courts. "In conjunction with developing the aggregate liability estimate, the Corporation also developed an estimate of probable insurance recoveries for its Asbestos Liability. In developing the estimate, the Corporation considered Nathan's projection for settlement or indemnity costs for Asbestos Liability and management's projection of associated defense costs (based on the current defense to indemnity cost ratio), as well as a number of additional factors. These additional factors included the Settlement Agreements in effect, policy exclusions, policy limits, policy provisions regarding coverage for defense costs, attachment points, prior impairment of policies and gaps in the coverage, policy exhaustions, insolvencies among certain of the insurance carriers, and the nature of the underlying claims for Asbestos Liability asserted against the subsidiaries and the Corporation as reflected in the Corporation's asbestos claims database, as well as estimated erosion of insurance limits on account of claims against Howden arising out of the Products. In addition to consulting with the Corporation's outside legal counsel on these insurance matters, the Corporation consulted with a nationally recognized insurance consulting firm it retained to assist the Corporation with certain policy allocation matters that also are among the several factors considered by the Corporation when analyzing potential recoveries from relevant historical insurance for Asbestos Liability. Based upon all of the factors considered by the Corporation, and taking into account the Corporation's analysis of publicly available information regarding the credit-worthiness of various insurers, the Corporation estimated the probable insurance recoveries for Asbestos Liability and defense costs through 2052. "The Corporation's reserve at December 31, 2018, for the total costs, including defense costs, for Asbestos Liability claims pending or projected to be asserted through 2052, was US$227,922,000. Defense costs are estimated at 80% of settlement costs. "The Corporation's receivable at December 31, 2018, for insurance recoveries attributable to the claims for which the Corporation's Asbestos Liability reserve has been established, including the portion of incurred defense costs covered by the Settlement Agreements in effect through December 31, 2018, and the probable payments and reimbursements relating to the estimated indemnity and defense costs for pending and unasserted future Asbestos Liability claims, was US$152,508,000."

The Company states, "One of our subsidiaries has been named as one of many defendants in a number of product liability claims for alleged exposure to asbestos. These lawsuits are typically filed on behalf of plaintiffs who allege exposure to asbestos, against numerous defendants, often forty or more, who are alleged to have manufactured or distributed products containing asbestos. The injuries alleged by plaintiffs in these cases range from mesothelioma and other cancers to asbestosis. "The earliest claims against our subsidiary were filed in New Jersey in 1998, and our subsidiary currently has active cases in Missouri, New Jersey, New York, and Illinois. These complaints do not typically include requests for a specific amount of damages. Our subsidiary acquired the trademark for the product line in question in 1985. To date, the claims against our subsidiary alleging illnesses due to asbestos have been based on products manufactured by the previous owner prior to 1985 that are alleged to have contained asbestos. "Our subsidiary did not utilize asbestos in the production of these products after its purchase of the trademark, as by that date the hazards of asbestos exposure were well known and asbestos had begun to fall into disuse. Our subsidiary has been successful in obtaining dismissals in most lawsuits without any cash contribution. This is because the "successor liability" law in most states does not hold a purchaser in good faith liable for the actions of the seller prior to the acquisition date unless the purchaser contractually assumed the liabilities, which our subsidiary did not. There are exceptions to the successor liability doctrine in many states, so there are no assurances that our subsidiary will not be found liable for the actions of its predecessor. The law in other states on so called "successor liability" may be different or ambiguous in this regard, and could also expose our subsidiary to liability. Our subsidiary could also be found liable should a trier of fact determine that it did use asbestos in its products, notwithstanding our position to the contrary. "To date, asbestos claims have not had a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow, as our annual out-of-pocket costs over the last five years has been less than US$200,000. There were fewer than 25 new cases filed against our subsidiary in each of last two years, and a significant number of existing cases were dismissed, settled or otherwise disposed of over the last year. "We currently have fewer than 150 lawsuits pending against this subsidiary. Our subsidiary has over US$17 million in face amount of insurance per occurrence and over US$23 million of aggregate primary insurance coverage. "In addition, our subsidiary has over US$950 million in face amount of excess coverage applicable to the claims. There can be no guarantee that all of this can be collected due to policy terms and conditions and insurer insolvencies in the past or in the future. "In January 2011, we entered into an agreement with seven of our primary insurers under which they have agreed to pay 80% of the costs of handling and settling each asbestos claim against the affected subsidiary. The insurers' portion of the settlements is funded by our aggregate primary limits, which are eroded only by settlements and not legal fees. Approximately US$2.0 million in settlements has been paid by insurers to date, with approximately US$40,000 paid over the course of the last two years. Our subsidiary and the subscribing insurers have the right to withdraw from this agreement, but to date, no party has exercised this right or expressed an intent to do so."

The J&J victory came the week after the company settled three cases alleging baby powder caused a rare asbestos-connected cancer. Two, in Oklahoma and California, were settled during trial. The other, in New York, was settled less than two weeks before trial was set to begin. Plaintiff Robert Blinkinsop was diagnosed in July 2017 with mesothelioma, a rare cancer of the lining of the lung generally caused by asbestos exposure. Blinkinsop used Johnson's baby powder daily for personal hygiene from 1977 to 1994 and on his children from 1992 to 1996, his attorney, Mark Bratt, said at trial. He also used the company's Shower to Shower talc product. J&J is facing more than 13,000 lawsuits linking baby powder and Shower to Shower to ovarian cancer or mesothelioma. More than two dozen trials have been scheduled in U.S. courts in 2019. "Today's jury unanimously ruled that Johnson's Baby Powder does not contain asbestos and was not the cause of the plaintiff's disease," Kim Montagnino, company spokeswoman, said in an emailed statement. "This conclusion is aligned to the decades of clinical evidence and scientific studies by medical experts around the world that support the safety of Johnson's Baby Powder." Blinkinsop's attorney said he was shocked and disappointed by the verdict. "Given the hundreds of positive historical tests from J&J showing asbestos in its talc containing baby powder, as well as J&J's ongoing decision to use deceptive testing techniques that allow for false negative results -- we have no doubt asbestos was, and currently still is in J&Js talc baby powder products," Bratt said in a statement. "Asbestos in baby powder is a huge public health concern that is far bigger than just this case." The company's record at trial has been mixed so far. The company lost a $29-million jury award in a California mesothelioma case March 13 and won a defense verdict in a New Jersey trial March 27, the same day it settled the three cases. Several of the first trials resulted in plaintiffs' verdicts, including one for $4.69 billion in St. Louis in 2018 to 22 women with ovarian cancer. But J&J has been able to win reversals of three of the first five jury awards. The company has also won other defense verdicts in cases alleging links between baby powder and mesothelioma beyond the New Jersey trial. Some of the verdicts include awards against J&J's talc supplier, Imerys America, which filed for bankruptcy protection in February. Lawyers for Blinkinsop and his wife, Karen, alleged that J&J knew for decades that its talc contained asbestos yet didn't warn or protect customers. People at J&J "made some really poor decisions in the past," which led to Blinkinsop's exposure to asbestos, Bratt said. Talc and asbestos were found in Blinkinsop's lung tissue, he said. Blinkinsop testified at trial that his condition is terminal. "It's not curable," he said. The doctors have "all said the same thing that if everything goes well, I might survive three years," he told jurors. "Never any guarantee about the quality of life during that time." The company's attorney told jurors there is no asbestos in J&J talc products and its talc didn't cause Blinkinsop's illness. "For over 40 years we have been working with the best scientists, the best universities and the best laboratories who have all confirmed our products do not contain asbestos," defense attorney Bruce Hurley said. Blinkinsop could have been exposed to asbestos while working on construction jobs, he said. "Mr. Blinkinsop's mesothelioma was not caused by Johnson's baby powder," Hurley said. "Cosmetic talc does not cause mesothelioma." ASBESTOS UPDATE: Mass. High Ct. Bars Claims in Construction Suits ----------------------------------------------------------------- Steven A. Meyerowitz, writing for PropertyCasualty360, reported that a decision by the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts concerning the state's six-year statute of repose effectively bars all or nearly all tort claims arising from negligence in the use or handling of asbestos in construction-related suits. Behind the headlines Wayne Oliver died in 2016 of mesothelioma after exposure to asbestos during the construction of two nuclear power plants in the 1970s. The General Electric Company ("GE") had designed, manufactured and sold steam turbine generators for installation at each of the plants and had supervised the installations. GE's installation specifications at the time called for the use of asbestos-containing insulation materials. Oliver worked as a pipe inspector for a third-party, and was present while the insulation was cut, mixed and applied to certain piping systems and equipment in the turbine halls of both plants, exposing him to the toxic asbestos particles within. He came into contact with the tainted insulation between 1971 and 1978, received his malignant mesothelioma diagnosis in April 2015, and filed a lawsuit against GE in August 2015. Oliver alleged, among other things, that GE had negligently exposed him to asbestos during the construction of the two power plants and had caused him to contract mesothelioma. The plaintiff died in July 2016. The co-executors of his estate submitted an amended complaint and continued the litigation. GE moved for summary judgment on the ground that the plaintiffs' claims against it were barred by a Massachusetts law that sets a six-year time limit for tort actions arising out of any deficiency or neglect in the design, planning, construction, or general administration of an improvement to real property. The plaintiffs disputed that the law was intended to apply to cases involving diseases with extended latency periods, arguing that, if it applied, it would have the effect of extinguishing meritorious claims before they even came into existence. A federal district court in Massachusetts ruled that GE's turbine generators, including their insulation materials, were "indisputably" improvements to real property. Notwithstanding this finding, the district court denied GE's motion as to the claims arising from the alleged asbestos exposure because it was "not at all clear" that the statute was designed to bar a category of claims "known uniformly to have a latency period of at least [20] years," particularly where "GE had control of the site at the time of [Mr.] Oliver's asbestos exposure, conducted regular on-site maintenance and inspections for at least two decades after construction was complete, and continues . . . to perform [routine] refueling outages," removing it from the category of defendants customarily protected by the statute. Case law in question The district court then certified the following question to the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts: "[W]hether or not the Massachusetts statute of repose, [G. L. c.] 260, § 2B, can be applied to bar personal injury claims arising from diseases with extended latency periods, such as those associated with asbestos exposure, where defendants had knowing control of the instrumentality of injury at the time of exposure." Massachusetts law provides: Action[s] of tort for damages arising out of any deficiency or neglect in the design, planning, construction or general administration of an improvement to real property . . . shall be commenced only within three years next after the cause of action accrues; provided, however, that in no event shall such actions be commenced more than six years after the earlier of the dates of: (1) the opening of the improvement to use; or (2) substantial completion of the improvement and the taking of possession for occupancy by the owner. The court answered the certified question in the affirmative, concluding that the law, "Completely eliminates all tort claims arising out of any deficiency or neglect in the design, planning, construction, or general administration of an improvement to real property after the established time period has run, even if the cause of action arises from a disease with an extended latency period and even if a defendant had knowing control of the instrumentality of injury at the time of exposure." In its decision, the court explained that it was "well established" that a statute of repose eliminated a cause of action at a specified time, regardless of whether an injury had occurred or a cause of action had accrued as of that date. The court added that a statute of repose placed "an absolute time limit on the liability of those within its protection" and abolished a plaintiff's cause of action thereafter, even if the plaintiff's injury did not occur, or was not discovered, until after the statute's time limit had expired. The court said that, in contrast to statutes of limitation, "statutes of repose may not be 'tolled' for any reason." The court's verdict explained The court rejected the plaintiffs' contention that the law did not shield a defendant that was in control of the improvement to real property at the time of the incident giving rise to the cause of action, and did not apply to diseases with extended latency periods, such as those associated with asbestos exposure. According to the court, the language of the law was "unequivocal," providing that "in no event shall [an action of tort for damages covered herein] be commenced more than six years" after the earlier of two specified dates: "(1) the opening of the improvement to use; or (2) the substantial completion of the improvement and the taking of possession . . . by the owner." Setting precedent The court said that the legislature's apparent intent "was to place an absolute time limit on the liability of those protected by the statute." The court found further support for its conclusion in the fact that the legislature had expressly provided for an exception in another, similar statute of repose, applicable to medical malpractice actions arising from a foreign object left in a body. The court held that the law "completely" eliminated all tort claims arising out of any deficiency or neglect in the design, planning, construction, or general administration of an improvement to real property after the established time period had run, even if the cause of action arose from a disease with an extended latency period and even if a defendant had knowing control of the instrumentality of injury at the time of exposure. The "appropriate recourse," the court concluded, was in the legislature, "not this court." The case is Stearns v. Metropolitan Life Insurance Co., No. SJC-12544 (Mass. March 1, 2019). ********* S U B S C R I P T I O N I N F O R M A T I O N Class Action Reporter is a daily newsletter, co-published by Bankruptcy Creditors' Service, Inc., Fairless Hills, Pennsylvania, USA, and Beard Group, Inc., Washington, D.C., USA.
