- PDF p. 2 (Navy vessels built before 1980); asbestos section p. 6
- Finding type
- asbestos_application
- Finding
- CDC-hosted ‘A Clinician’s Guide to Occupational Exposures in the Military’ states that asbestos was widely used by the Navy during World War II and continued to be used into the 1980s, and characterizes U.S. Navy vessels built before 1980 at that Navy-wide/era level. Paragould was built and commissioned during World War II; this is class/era context only.

[4]CourtListener API v4 authenticated helper, four required base-query attempts [court_record]
- Locator
- Helper diagnostics on 2026-10-03: authenticated request logged for each base query; no JSON response returned before pacing wait exceeded execution window
- Finding type
- litigation_documented
- Finding
- No CourtListener result is recorded. The four required authenticated base searches—exact name in opinions and dockets, and hull number in opinions and dockets—were each initiated through the fleet helper, but the shared pacing limiter did not admit a request before the execution window ended.

- Limitations
- This is an incomplete search caused by shared pacing, not a no-result or negative litigation finding. No asbestos variants were run because no base result page was returned and thus no 20-result overflow could be assessed.
