TEST | Court ‘recognizes company liability for radon bed incident’... Consumers ‘partially win’ in second trial

A separate consumer group filed a lawsuit regarding the radon layer issue and won in the first instance. Appeals court: ``Manufacturing and selling mattresses using human-centered materials is illegal...'' ``Consolation payments must be returned.''

An appeals court has ruled that mattress manufacturers must compensate consumers for damages in a controversial class action lawsuit filed by victims of the so-called "radon bed situation" in which radioactive materials were detected in mattresses.
