How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • “Although Florida courts have not spoken on the subject, this Court finds that the state’s highest court would refuse to enforce contractual disclaimers in strict tort liability actions—regardless of the 7 parties’ relative bargaining power.”
  • “Although Illinois is the state where the conduct causing the injury occurred, this factor is not significant in a products liability case.” What the court found significant was the place of injury, the place of product delivery and the place of contract execution
