Description
JUSTICE HARRISON delivered the opinion of the court: Steven Solich, a steel worker, contracted the lung disease silicosis as the result of prolonged exposure to silica dust at
United States Steel's South Works facility in Chicago. The disease became symptomatic and necessitated Solich's retirement
in 1982. In 1984 Solich brought this damage action in the circuit court of Cook County against U.S. Steel and the George and
Anna Portes Cancer Prevention Center, alleging that his condition could have been averted had U.S. Steel and Portes not been
negligent in failing to report to him the adverse results of a chest X ray taken in 1975. Solich's wife, Helen, asserted her
own claim against Fortes and U.S. Steel for loss of consortium, and Portes filed a counterclaim against U.S. Steel for equitable
apportionment. Following a jury trial, a verdict was returned in favor of the Soliches and against both defendants. Steven's
damages were found to be $2,096,729.15, and Helen's, $350,000. As between Portes and U.S. Steel, the jury apportioned liability
at one percent for Portes and 99% for U.S. Steel.
