Chinese Drywall

The Daily Journal just reported that a Florida couple was awarded $2.4 million in damages on Friday in the nation's first jury trial over defective Chinese drywall. The damages were for loss of use and enjoyment of the home, cost of repair, and diminution in value. The developer is vowing to appeal the verdict. This is one to keep an eye on.
