I need your help ppl .... what product liability claims could they legitimately raise ?


an 11-month-old child pushed on a window screen that gave way,allowing him to fall from the second story of his aunt;s house,the child parents ued the screen maker.

what product liability claims could they legitimately raise?

decide. explain pleas.....

IMO: They would only have a claim if the screen manufacturer said that the screen would support the weight of a 1 yo (or thereabouts) child pushing against it. Because the screen did **not** support the child, the parents could bring up the issue of poor workmanship if the manufacturer said it was supposed to. Other than that, they're SOL.

Do you really think that getting answers to your law school homework here is going to help you in any way?
