Duquesne Law Review

Abstract

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court found that a manufacturer was independently liable under products liability for the failure to warn of a known defect in a component part. The court also held that a settlement by one joint tort-feasor -reduced the verdict amount only by the settling defendant's pro-rata share, and that the non-settling joint tort-feasor owed its full pro-rata share to the plaintiff.
