Lone Pine orders are case management orders issued in large toxic tort cases that require claimants to come forward with prima facie injury, exposure, and causation evidence by a date certain—or else face dismissal.

Lone Pine orders are quite common, but they are frequently unpublished.  Since they are so often unpublished, research into the orders has, historically, been resource-intensive and difficult.  To address this difficulty, this website collects and catalogs dozens of previously-unavailable Lone Pine orders, from state and federal courts across the United States.

If you would like to contribute additional Lone Pine orders to this effort, please contact us.  For more information about Lone Pine orders, see Nora Freeman Engstrom, The Lessons of Lone Pine, 129 Yale L.J. 2 (2019).
