Plaintiff who had a 40-year history working with asbestos products and had developed several asbestos-related diseases sued Owens Corning asserting that the company should share 4 to 7% responsibility for his condition.   Defense counsel John Brydon convinced the jury that the plaintiff could not establish that he'd been specifically exposed to Owens Corning products and that his asbestos-related medical complaints were not life threatening.   The jury found that Owens Corning products had not caused the plaintiff's injuries.
