Subject: | Exempting Innocent Sellers from Product Liability Lawsuits |
I plan to re-introduce Senate Bill 516 from last session which would exempt certain product sellers from product liability lawsuits. Currently, there are instances in which a product seller other than the manufacturer can be sued if a product they sold is later found to be defective. The Innocent Sellers Act would exempt product sellers from liability if they have not manufactured or altered a product. Co-sponsors of Senate Bill 516 were Senators Hutchinson, Mensch, Phillips-Hill, Stefano, and K. Ward. Thank you. |
