CA/5:
Court Affirms Lack of Evidence in Valley Fever Case
In an unpublished opinion, the Fifth District has affirmed a trial court's jury decision that an employee who contracted "Valley Fever" didn't prove it happened at the work site.
Nor, the Court ruled, was there enough evidence to support a finding that the employer negligently or intentionally concealed the risk of contracting the disease at work.
The employee had worked at a power plant construction site in McKittrick, California, and had sued the general contractor in civil court.
The case is Wilson v. Alstom Power.
