A former auto mechanic who was diagnosed with terminal mesothelioma after being exposed to asbestos in brake linings has received a $37 million award from a Tampa jury.
Gary Hampton, a former Tampa resident who now lives in Pilgrim’s Knob, Va., sued Pneumo Abex LLC and Ford Motor Co. shortly after his February 2013 diagnosis. Ford and Hampton reached a confidential settlement in the middle of the 2½-week trial in Hillsborough Circuit Court.
