The crackdown on asbestos litigation in these states has prompted forum shopping in jurisdictions such as South Carolina where objective medical standards have not been adopted legislatively. The court dockets in South Carolina may become crowded with asbestos cases filed by individuals who are not physically impaired. These cases clog the court system and drain resources that would be available to aid individuals who are truly sick. In addition, these cases can threaten the financial viability of South Carolina businesses.
