CAROL J. KRIVANEK, as Personal Representative, Appellant, v. FIBREBOARD CORPORATION, ET AL, Defendants, OWENS-CORNING FIBERGLAS, INC., Respondent.

The Court of Appeals of Washington, Division One.

December 13, 1993.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Ronald C. Gardner, Steven G. Wraith, and Lee, Smart, Cook, Martin & Patterson, P.S., Inc., for respondent.


WEBSTER, C.J.

Carol Krivanek appeals a judgment for damages. She claims that based on the evidence presented at trial, the jury's damage award was inadequate, and the trial court abused its discretion in denying her motion for a new trial. Owens-Corning Fiberglas (OCF) assigns error to the court's failure to give OCF's proposed instructions to the jury that it could consider the asbestos industry's customs and technological feasibility evidence.
