New York Court of Appeals Hears Oral Argument on Certified Questions Concerning Products Liability

Next week, the New York Court of Appeals will hear oral argument in Jaramillo v. Weyerhaeuser.  Jaramillo concerns a certified question from the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit concerning whether an entity that sold a used machine can be considered a "regular seller" to be held strictly liable under New York product liability jurisprudence.

NYCL will keep you apprised of the decision that will likely be handed down next month.
