Florida Chinese Drywall Lawsuits Number 150
A new report says 15,000 Floridians have joined 150 lawsuits over tainted Chinese drywall. According to a report on news-press.com, some legal experts believe more than 75,000 lawsuits could be filed nationwide over the defective Chinese drywall.
According to a recent Wall Street Journal article, the U.S. imported roughly 309 million square feet of drywall from China during the housing boom from 2004 to 2007. The material reportedly emits sulfur fumes that produce a “rotten eggs” odor and cause metals, such as air conditioning coils, to corrode. The fumes have also been associated with respiratory and sinus problems in some residents. In some homes, the drywall problems have been so severe that families have had to move, and some builders have begun gutting and replacing drywall in the buildings.
