Product Advertising and Liability


For this week, you will be researching two lawsuits in the legal database – one based on a defective and unsafe product, and one based on deceptive warranty and advertising. See below and discuss and answer the following:

  1. The legal duty of manufacturers is to provide safe products in the marketplace today.  Research using NEXIS-Uni Legal Database link below and provide a case within the last three years of a defective product case pursuant to either a design defect, manufacturing defect or failure to warn cause of action. Be sure to explain the law in all three areas and be specific as to terminology, the case facts and the holding and decision in the lawsuit. A case that results in a dismissal is fine as long as you are thorough in demonstrating your understanding of the law.  

Use the legal database here – NEXIS-Uni Legal Database link: https://libdatab.strayer.edu/login?url=https://www.nexisuni.com or https://research.strayer.edu

Please be sure answers are researched, informed, and substantiated by citing sources used at the bottom of your discussion post.   See the Strayer Writing Standards link in BB for help following citation requirements.
