    CourtListener docket 4142754, case name Oak River Asset Management LLC; search result for "YMS-25"
    Finding type
    litigation_documented
    Finding
    The hull-number docket query for "YMS-25" returned one indexed result, Oak River Asset Management LLC, a 2016 bankruptcy docket in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California. The case caption and parties do not identify USS YMS-25 or a vessel; this is a name collision, not qualifying ship litigation.

    Limitations
    This classifies only the one result returned by the completed hull-number docket query. Three of the four required base queries did not reach CourtListener because the helper's fleet-wide pacing gate refused them. No conclusion about the full litigation universe or asbestos litigation is drawn.

    Limitations
    These are the coverage dates of indexed deck logs only. They are not asserted as commissioning, decommissioning, or complete service dates. The finding aid does not describe asbestos, construction, service events, or the vessel's later disposition.

    Research review summarized in BATCH-8886-REPORT.md; see search_ledger
    Finding type
    historical_record
    Finding
    No matching hull record or documented designation alias for YMS-25 was located in the primary sources reviewed at any tier. The available NARA record establishes deck-log coverage under the YMS-25 hull number only.

    Limitations
    A failure to locate a primary record is not proof that no other record or alias exists. The negative finding is limited to sources reviewed for this batch; NavSource provides a secondary individual history that corroborates this hull identity but is not used to establish a primary-source alias.

    This is a bounded search result, not evidence that asbestos was absent. No class- or era-based exposure inference is made for this hull; material aboard and any individual exposure remain unknown.
