Cipollone V. Liggitt Group, Inc., Federal Preemption And The Preservation Of State Common Law Claims (Product Liability), David J. Stout Jun 1993

Cipollone V. Liggitt Group, Inc., Federal Preemption And The Preservation Of State Common Law Claims (Product Liability), David J. Stout

Faculty Scholarship

In virtually every case involving a defective product you can anticipate the manufacturer or supplier seeking refuge behind the tired refrain "the Government let me do it." At its most basic the doctrine of preemption limits the operation of state law in areas where Congress has intended that federal law be exclusive or controlling.

It is to be hoped that the wave of federal preemption has crested and that the federal courts will, under the specific guidance of Cipollone, be less inclined to look beyond the expressed purpose of Congress to find state common law tort claims preempted.


The Government Contractor Defense, David J. Stout May 1993

The Government Contractor Defense, David J. Stout

Faculty Scholarship

Litigation involving defective products has increasingly become a pre-trial battle to overcome a series of technical defenses that have become a stock part of the manufacturer's defense.

Defendants invariably raise the government contractor defense where the defective product resulted from some governmental involvement in the manufacturing process, no matter how peripheral or superfluous was the government's involvement in that process.

The defense by its nature only applies to design defect cases. A defect in the manufacturing process is not protected by the defense.
