Missouri HB1649 modifies asbestos exposure damage actions by requiring claimants to file all related trust claims and produce trust materials before.
Missouri HB1649 introduces new provisions for asbestos exposure damage actions, requiring claimants to file all related asbestos trust claims and produce trust materials before trial. Claimants must provide a sworn statement and supporting documents within 30 days of filing an asbestos action. If a defendant believes the claimant has not filed all related trust claims, they can move the court to require the claimant to do so. Failure to comply results in the dismissal of the asbestos action without prejudice.
