Austin American-Statesman: "Neighbors sue Terry Black’s over barbecue smoke"

The Statesman has just reported that a group of nearby homeowners have filed a lawsuit against Terry Black's Barbecue, claiming injury from the smoke emitted by the restaurant's smokers. The group of 15 plaintiffs are pursuing claims of negligence and nuisance. According to the article, "The plaintiffs are seeking the loss in market value from the permanent injury they say the smoke has produced. The plaintiffs say the restaurant’s negligence to their complaints has resulted or will result in medical care expenses, physical pain, mental anguish and physical impairments."
