ASBESTOS TRIAL
Union Pacific claims Instruction B not submitted
Instruction No. B -- In order to find in favor of plaintiff for emotional distress resulting from any reasonable fear of developing cancer as a result of asbestosis, you must believe:
First, plaintiff suffers actual emotional injury as a result of his fear of cancer relating to asbestosis; and,
Second, plaintiff has taken actions indicating more than a general concern about his future health, or has demonstrated physical symptoms as a result of his fear of cancer.
