    Judge Rules in Favor of Homeowners in Chinese Drywall CaseU.S. District Court Judge Eldon Fallon in the first "bellwether" trial in the Multidistrict Litigation proceedings for homes containing Chinese drywall ruled that the defective drywall attacks and severely damages copper and silver components of homes where the drywall is installed. The ruling also states that in order to correct the problem, the drywall, wiring, plumbing, air conditioning equipment (including ductwork), and interior finish components such as trim, flooring, cabinetry, and carpeting must be removed and replaced. In homes where Chinese drywall is mixed with non-corrosive U.S.-made drywall, the judge ruled, all drywall from whatever source must be stripped, and all wiring, plumbing, and air conditioning systems throughout the house must be replaced.
