How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- finding plaintiff was unable to defeat summary judgment for a lack of a causal relationship where he did not read a car’s product manual
- finding that “even if an adequate warning of the particular danger in this case had been given by a proper provision in the manual, such a warning would have been futile because [the owner] did not read the manual before parking his car over combustible materials.”
- auto manufacturer had duty to warn of danger in manual, but as owner of car never looked at or read manual, manufacturer was insulated from liability for its failure to do so
- a plaintiff in a failure to warn case cannot cite a manual the plaintiff did not read, though he may claim the manufacturer should have added a warning sticker
- applying Halphen to an accident that occurred in 1982
