   Finding type

   litigation_product_id

   Finding

   Published federal court opinion (motion-to-remand ruling in federal-officer asbestos removal) recites that defendant General Electric 'manufactured and sold equipment to the United States Navy, and its equipment was incorporated into numerous vessels, such as the U.S.S. Ortolan and the U.S.S. Jouett that were located at the Long Beach Naval Shipyard' (reciting doc. no. 22, the notice of removal), and that 'Plaintiffs assert that Decedent was exposed to asbestos while working on Defendant's asbestos-insulated turbines as a radioman/communications officer at the Long Beach Naval Shipyard' (doc. no. 22 at 7). The decedent's complaint Exhibit A identified Long Beach Naval Shipyard 1969-1989 as a site of exposure; special-interrogatory responses identified his work on GE turbines at Naval Shipyards. The court held removal proper under 28 U.S.C. 1442(a)(1) and denied remand, expressly noting it was 'not called upon at this preliminary stage to pierce the pleadings or dissect the facts stated.'

   Limitations

   Allegation-level litigation record: the opinion recites the defendant's removal assertion (GE equipment aboard Jouett at LBNSY) and the plaintiffs' exposure claim without adjudicating either - the court expressly declined to weigh the facts. It does not establish that the specific equipment aboard Jouett contained asbestos, that the decedent worked on or near Jouett's equipment, or that any exposure occurred aboard this hull. GE's own Hobson declaration asserted thermal insulation was procured by the Navy/shipbuilder from insulation vendors, not supplied by GE. Product identification at the removal-pleading stage only.

    Limitations

    Absence of a located public record does not prove absence of asbestos aboard - a 1960s steam cruiser would be expected to carry era-standard insulation. The CourtListener API was rate-limited mid-sweep (125/day shared quota), so exhaustive docket-level variant queries are incomplete; web-index coverage found the two qualifying litigation records. MARAD ShipHistory (403) and the GAO report text (403) could not be retrieved. Does not establish or defeat any claim of exposure or legal eligibility.
