| Court: | WI Supreme Court |
| Facts: | Thomas gets lead poisoning |
| Posture: | Wants to sue pigment manufacturers, along with others. Can't identify the specific pigment manufacturer, though. Appeal presumably from summary judgment in favor of defendants. |
| Issue: | Can this go to trial? |
| Holding: | Yes. |
| Rule: | Article 1, Section 9 of Wis. Const.: law provides remedy for all injuries. |
| Reasoning: | Lots of facts that make lead paint manufacturers look bad: hiding the risks of their products, etc. |
| Dicta: | Dissent: bad facts make bad law. Also, this will drive business away. |
