Tippecanoe County — Lafayette and West Lafayette — carried the Alcoa aluminum works, the Eli Lilly and Caterpillar plants, and the university’s power operations, where high-heat process and utility systems reportedly used asbestos-containing insulation.

Indiana allows two years from a mesothelioma or asbestos-cancer diagnosis to file a personal-injury claim (Ind. Code § 34-11-2-4), and two years from the date of death for a wrongful-death claim (§ 34-23-1-1). Indiana has no statute of repose for asbestos cases — the Indiana Supreme Court struck down the ten-year manufacturing cutoff in Myers v. Crouse-Hinds (2016) — so a claim is not barred by how long ago the exposure occurred. Cases are filed in the county Circuit or Superior Court of proper venue; Indiana has no statewide asbestos MDL.
