Abstract
Product liability litigation may proceed under several theories when someone has suffered harm caused by a product furnished by a commercial supplier. Liability for injuries or death caused by defective products can be based on the negligence of the manufacturer, wholesaler, or retailer of a product; on breach of warranty; on misrepresentations made by the seller regarding the nature or quality of the product; and on a theory of strict liability. In all cases, however, the plaintiff must prove that the negligence of the supplier of the product or the defective or unreasonably dangerous product itself caused the injury. Very often the testimony of an expert witness on the issues of defect and causation may be required to establish a prima facie case.
