IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA FIFTH APPELLATE DISTRICT JACOB WILSON et al. , Plaintiffs and Appellants, v. ALSTOM POWER, INC. , Defendant and Respondent. About the only thing the parties agreed on at the five-week trial was that Brown and Wilson did contract valley fever. In December of 2003 the Laughlin action was consolidated with this action (the Wilson and Brown action). The record on appeal does not appear to indicate what became of the Laughlin action, but the Wilson and Brown action was tried by itself, and the judgment in the Wilson and Brown action was a judgment in the Wilson and Brown action only. He was called by the plaintiffs to testify about his diagnosis of Wilson for valley fever (Coccidioidomycosis) and his treatment of Wilson for that illness.
