`
`2.
`
`Plaintiff Oscar Requena is a surviving adult son of decedent, Maria Hernandez,
`
`and a resident of the State of Texas. He brings this suit individually and on behalf of the Estate
`
`of Maria Hernandez, deceased, pursuant to Chapter 71 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies
`
`Code.
`
`3.
`
`Defendant Pilgrim’s Pride Corporation (“Pilgrim’s”) is a Delaware corporation,
`
`with its principal place of business at 1770 Promontory Circle Greeley, Colorado 80634.
`
`Defendant engaged, and continues to engage,
`
`in relevant business activities and services in
`
`Texas. Pilgrim’s may be served through its registered agent, Corporation Service Company, at
`
`211 E. 7th Street, Suite 620 Austin, Texas 78701.
`
`III. DISCOVERY LEVEL
`
`4.
`
`Plaintiffs request that discovery be conducted under Level 3 of the Texas Rules of
`
`Civil Procedure.
`
`IV. F_A(;lԤ
`
`5.
`
`While American citizens and businesses across the country were taking
`
`extraordinary steps to limit the spread and impact of COVID-l9, Pilgrim’s sent an employee
`
`who had worked for the company for over 30 years into the heart of an outbreak at its Lufl<in,
`
`Texas, processing plant. The fact that Maria Hernandez, then 63 years old, was at higher risk of
`
`succumbing to the effects of COVID-l9 did not stop Pilgrim’s from sending her to a known hot
`
`spot for the virus. On April 23, 2020, Pilgrim’s management shifted workers from other
`
`departments to the Shipping and Labeling department to fill in for workers who were absent due
`
`to a COVID-19 outbreak. Among those workers was Maria Hernandez, who became infected.
`
`
`
`Case 9:20-cv-00147 Document 1-1 Filed 07/02/20 Page 6 of 17 PageID #: 17
`Case 9:20-cv-00147 Document 1-1 Filed 07/02/20 Page 6 of 17 PagelD #: 17
`
`On May 8, 2020, her 64th birthday, Ms. Hernandez became the first Lufldn resident to die of
`
`complications related to COVID-19.
`
`V. COVID-19
`
`6.
`
`COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV—Z, has led to
`
`a global pandemic. The first known case of COVID—19 in the United States was identified on
`
`January 21, 2020. By March 13, 2020, Governor Greg Abott had declared a statewide
`
`emergency. COVID-19 quickly spread throughout Texas, including to the Pilgrim’s plant in
`
`Lufl<in.
`
`7.
`
`COVID-l9 causes more severe symptoms, and even death, at a significantly
`
`higher rate in older individuals. One study has estimated that the infection fatality rate in those
`
`aged 60—69 is nearly three times higher than in the overall population.
`
`8.
`
`COVID—19 spreads rapidly among individuals forced to work in close proximity._
`
`Additionally, the virus that causes COVID-l9 thrives in colder temperatures. For those reasons,
`
`meatpacking and poultry plants like the Pilgrim’s plant in Luflcin have experienced outbreaks
`
`around the country and are often “hot spots” for the virus within their communities. Plant
`
`workers are infected at grossly disproportionate rates when compared to the general population.
`
`For example, although Pilgrim’s employees account for approximately two percent of employees
`
`in Angelina County, as of May 9, 2020, nearly half (50 out of 107) of all confirmed COVID-l9
`
`cases in the county were employees of Pilgrim’s. While other employers shut down facilities
`
`experiencing outbreaks — even if only temporarily to allow for deep cleaning — as of the time of
`
`Ms. Hemandez’s death Pilgrim’s had refused to shut down even 48 hours for additional cleaning.
`
`VI. PILGRIM’S PRIDE
`
`9.
`
`Pilgrim’s Pride Corporation (“Pilgrim’s”) traces its origins back to a feed store
`
`founded in Pittsburg, Texas, in 1946 by brothers Aubrey and Lonnie Pilgrim. In 2009, JBS USA
`
`-3-
`

`
`Case 9:20-cv-00147 Document 1-1 Filed 07/02/20 Page 7 of 17 PageID #: 18
`Case 9:20-cv-00147 Document 1-1 Filed 07/02/20 Page 7 of 17 PageID #: 18
`
`Holdings, Inc., a subsidiary of the Brazilian company JBS S.A., acquired majority ownership of
`
`the company. Pilgrim’s now operates in 14 states across the United States and distributes
`
`chicken and chicken products under various brands. The company claims that “nearly 1 out of
`
`every 5 chickens in the US. come from Pilgrim’s.”
`
`10.
`
`Pilgrim’s proclaims on its website that they “are dedicated to [their]
`
`team
`
`members” and that their goal is to provide them with “the opportunity for a better future!” In a
`statement to The Lufl<in Daily News, Pilgrim’s declared,. ”The health and safety of our
`
`employees is our highest priority.”
`
`11.
`
`No later than April 21, 2020, Pilgrim’s management was aware of multiple cases
`
`of COVID-19 amongst their employees at the Lufldn plant. Pilgrim’s employees began to miss
`
`work, especially in the Shipping and Labeling department. Management responded by shifting
`
`workers from other departments into that area, where several employees had already fallen sick.
`Pilgrim’s failed to take adequate precautions to protect these incoming workers and failed to
`account for risk factors such as age when assigning workers.
`A
`
`According to a Pilgrim’s employee, as reported in the Lufkin Daily News, the
`12.
`Shipping and Labeling department at Pilgrim’s was consistently understaffed during the
`
`pandemic due to illness, employees being tested, or absenteeism. According to another Pilgrim’s
`
`employee, speaking to the paper on condition of anonymity, the company pulled people from
`each department
`into Shipping and Labeling despite employees’
`concerns of cross-
`contamination.
`.
`V
`
`13.
`
`On information and belief,
`
`in order to keep employees working, Pilgrim’s ‘
`
`understated the number of COVID-19 infections, refused to allow employees to take personal
`
`days, and threatened repercussions if employees did not report for work.
`
`
`
`Case 9:20-cv-00147 Document 1-1 Filed 07/02/20 Page 8 of 17 PageID #: 19
`Case 9:20-cv-00147 Document 1-1 Filed 07/02/20 Page 8 of 17 PagelD #: 19
`
`14.
`
`Nevertheless, Pilgrim’s insisted in a statement that it was “offering support” to
`
`team members who tested positive and their families. The company maintained that it was
`
`“taking strict precautions at all of [its] facilities to protect the health and safety of [its] team
`
`members” and would do “all we can” to keep the virus out of its facilities.
`
`15.
`
`The events leading up to Ms. Hernandez’s death tell a different story.
`
`VII. MARIA HERNANDEZ
`
`16.
`
`Maria Hernandez was born in 1956. For over three decades until her untimely
`
`death, she worked the line at the Pilgrim’s plant in Lufl<in, Texas, while raising her two sons. At
`
`the time of her death, Ms. Hernandez worked on the Second Processing line as a machine
`
`operator.
`
`17.
`
`When she became aware of the COVID-19 threat, Ms. Hernandez took
`
`precautions to avoid unnecessary social contact. She consistently maintained social distancing
`
`and limited contact outside of the workplace. Because of the nature of her job, however, Ms.
`
`Hernandez could not avoid being around others while working. And when she was sent to work
`
`in the Shipping and Labeling department, a hot spot in the Lufl<in plant known to Pilgrim’s
`
`management, she could not avoid the virus that caused her death.
`
`18.
`
`On or about Thursday, April 23, 2020, instead of working her usual station, Ms.
`
`Hernandez was instructed to report to work in the Shipping and Labeling department at the
`
`Pilgrim’s plant. Faced with the possibility of losing her job if she refused, Ms. Hernandez
`
`complied.
`
`19.
`
`Soon thereafter, on Friday, May 1, Ms. Hernandez began experiencing COVID-19
`
`symptoms. The next day she called in sick. On Monday, May 4, although she was still not
`
`feeling well, Ms. Hernandez reported for work rather than risk being penalized by her employer.
`
`After an hour or so, Ms. Hernandez was unable to continue working and went to see a company
`
`-5-
`
`
`
`Case 9:20-cv-00147 Document 1-1 Filed 07/02/20 Page 9 of 17 PageID #: 20
`Case 9:20-cv-00147 Document 1-1 Filed 07/02/20 Page 9 of 17 PageID #: 20
`
`nurse. The nurse suggested Ms. Hernandez see a doctor. Ms. Hemandez’s doctor suspected she
`
`had COVID-l9 and performed a test for the coronavirus. He also recommended that she
`
`quarantine.
`
`20.
`
`That same day, too late to be of any help to Ms. Hernandez, Pilgrim’s sent home
`
`all workers 60 years of age or older from the Lufl<in plant.
`
`21.
`
`Ms. Hernandez received positive results from her coronavirus test just days before
`
`her death.
`
`22.
`
`On Friday, May 8, 2020, her 64th birthday, Ms. Hernandez died of complications
`
`related to COVID—19 -- less than three weeks after being sent to work in the heart of an outbreak.
`
`VIII. COUNT I
`
`Negligence
`
`23.
`
`Plaintiffs incorporate the allegations contained in the foregoing paragraphs as if
`
`fully set forth in the following paragraphs.
`
`24.
`
`Pilgrim’s owed Maria Hernandez a nondelegable duty to provide a safe
`
`workplace.
`
`25.
`
`Pilgrim’s OWed Maria Hernandez a duty to warn her of the fact that Pilgrim’s
`
`employees had tested positive for COVID-19, and specifically that the Shipping and Labeling
`
`department was a “hot spot” with a higher number of cases relative to other areas of the Lufldn
`
`plant.
`
`26.
`
`Pilgrim’s owed Maria Hernandez a duty to consider reasonable risk factors, such
`
`as age, before assigning her to an area of the plant where employees had been infected.
`
`27.
`
`Pilgrim’s 0Wed Maria Hernandez a duty not to place her in harm’s way by
`
`exposing her unnecessarily to increased risk of exposure to COVID-19 without adequate
`
`personal protective equipment.
`
`
`
`Case 9:20-cv-00147 Document 1-1 Filed 07/02/20 Page 10 of 17 PageID #: 21
`Case 9:20-cv-00147 Document 1-1 Filed 07/02/20 Page 10 of 17 PagelD #: 21
`
`28.
`
`Pilgrim’s owed Maria Hernandez a duty to implement and enforce safety
`
`protocols to prevent the spread of, and exposure to, COVID-l9.
`
`29.
`
`Pilgrim’s owed Maria Hernandez a duty to seek out and remove sources of harm
`
`on the premises of the Lufl<in plant that Pilgrim’s controlled.
`
`30.
`
`Pilgrim’s breached its duties to Maria Hernandez by sending her to work in a
`
`known “hot spot” for COVID-l9 without warning or adequate protection and without taking
`
`reasonable steps to render the area safe.
`
`31.
`
`As a direct and proximate result of Defendant’s actions, Plaintiffs suffered
`
`injuries and damages.
`
`32.
`
`Pursuant to Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 47, Plaintiffs state that they are seeking
`
`monetary relief over $1,000,000.
`
`IX. COUNT II
`
`Gross Negligence
`
`33.
`
`Plaintiffs incorporate the allegations contained in the foregoing paragraphs as if
`
`fully set forth in the following paragraphs.
`
`34.
`
`Pilgrim’s was aware at all relevant times, and certainly no later than April 21,
`
`2020, of the outbreak of COVID-19 in the Shipping and Labeling department of its Lufl<in plant.
`
`Pilgrim’s created an extreme risk of harm by failing to adequately address the outbreak before
`
`sending additional workers from other departments into the Shipping and Labeling department.
`
`35.
`
`Pilgrim’s created an extreme risk of harm by failing to account for risk factors
`
`such as age when assigning employees to areas where infected workers had previously been
`
`assigned.

`Case 9:20-cv-00147 Document 1-1 Filed 07/02/20 Page 11 of 17 PageID #: 22
`
`36.
`
`As a direct and proximate result of Pilgrim’s gross negligence, Plaintiffs suffered
`
`injuries and damages.
`
`X. DAMAGES
`
`37.
`
`Plaintiffs incorporate the allegations contained in the foregoing paragraphs as if
`
`fully set forth in the following paragraphs.
`
`38.
`
`The facts set out above demonstrate that, as a direct and proximate result of
`
`Pilgrim’s conduct, Plaintiffs have individually suffered damages including, without limitation,
`
`pecuniary loss, both past and future, the loss of care, support, advice, and counsel. Plaintiffs
`
`suffered loss of companionship and society, both past and future, for the loss of the positive
`
`benefits flowing from the love, comfort, companionship, and society that Plaintiffs would have
`
`received from their beloved mother had she lived. Plaintiffs suffered mental anguish both past
`
`and future for the torment and emotional devastation of losing their mother, because of both her
`
`untimely death and the fact that she died alone in her home. Plaintiffs also suffered a loss of
`
`inheritance for the loss of the value of assets that Maria Hernandez would have added to the
`
`estate and left to her survivors upon her natural death.
`
`39.
`
`The facts set out above demonstrate that, as a direct and proximate result of
`
`Pilgrim’s conduct, the Estate of Maria Hernandez is entitled to recover all damages recoverable
`
`under Texas law including, without
`
`limitation, damages for reasonable funeral and burial
`
`expenses of the Estate of Maria Hernandez and for the conscious, emotional and physical pain,
`
`torment, anguish and suffering experienced or sustained by Maria Hernandez prior to her death.
`
`40.
`
`Plaintiffs further seek all other actual damages available under applicable law, the
`
`costs of this suit, and such further relief as this Court deems necessary, just and proper
`
