Rodriguez v. Besser Co.

How courts have described this case

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

• extending manufacturer’s duty to warn to situations in which it is notified of third-party modification after the product has left its possession and control “would place an intolerable burden on the manufacturer”
• there must be a reasonably foreseeable risk for section 389 to apply; thus, if no risk of the harm alleged is reasonably foreseeable from the product’s use, a negligence action cannot be based on that use
• jury correctly instructed it could find defendant liable if modification foreseeable
