Nnadili v. Chevron USA, 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 34865 (D.D.C. 2006)

Although an oil company was granted partial summary judgment on residents' strict liability claim, it was denied partial summary judgment on their mental distress damages claim because D.C. law allowed recovery of mental distress damages without physical injury for intentional torts such as trespass, which was pled in the residents' complaints.
