Durkee applies pressure to hold firms who installed defective drywall accountable for the harm caused to victims

On November 23, 2010, David Durkee presented arguments to Hon. Judge Glenn Kelley in the latest proceedings regarding the international sale of Chinese Drywall.  Commonly argued in a court of law as “strict liablity”, Durkee held firm in his fight to hold those companies and firms responsible which not only willingly installed the product in plaintiffs’ homes, but also recommended the sale of the material beyond their basic contracting services.

These preliminary hearings before Judge Kelley form the basis of the actual case, which begins in May of 2011. During the hearings, Durkee continued to apply pressure to all third parties involved in the intentional manufacturing, distribution, sale and installation of Chinese Drywall.  While many have filed separate or joint motions to dismiss various key issues of the case, David continues to push back against any blatant attempts to undermine victim’s claims.  This is especially true for those who willfully neglect parties who are seeking exclusion from the collective settlement and damages that Durkee knows all of the plaintiffs rightfully deserve.
