Federal appeals courts
U.S. Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit
- Stephens v. Union Pacific R. Co. (2019). The Ninth Circuit affirmed summary judgment for Union Pacific Railroad and against William and Norma Stephens, because Stephens did not show that exposure attributable to Union Pacific was a substantial factor in causing his mesothelioma.
Federal district courts
U.S. District Court, District of Idaho
- Stephens v. Union Pacific Railroad Company (2018). The court denied Union Pacific's motion for judgment on the pleadings because it had waived its preemption defense, but granted Union Pacific summary judgment because the Stephenses lacked evidence of exposure and causation, and denied the Stephenses' cross-motion.
