strict products liability

Read a random definition: holding charge

A quick definition of strict products liability:

Strict products liability is when a company is responsible for any harm caused by a defective product they made or sold. This means that if someone is hurt by a product that was not made correctly, the company that made or sold it can be held responsible. To prove strict products liability, the person who was hurt must show that the product was dangerous, that the company was in the business of selling products, that the product was defective, and that the defect caused the injury. This is a way to make sure that companies are careful when making and selling products so that people are safe when using them.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Strict products liability is a legal theory that holds manufacturers and sellers responsible for any damages or injuries caused by a defective product. This liability can be based on negligence, breach of warranty, or strict liability.

Example: If a person buys a toaster and it malfunctions, causing a fire that damages their home, the manufacturer of the toaster can be held strictly liable for the damages. The buyer does not need to prove that the manufacturer was negligent or breached a warranty, only that the product was defective and caused the damage.

This example illustrates how strict products liability works. The manufacturer is held responsible for the defective product, regardless of whether they were negligent or not. This helps protect consumers from harm caused by faulty products and encourages manufacturers to ensure their products are safe.
