Massachusetts S1092 aims to protect non-manufacturing sellers from liability in products liability cases.
Massachusetts S1092 introduces a new chapter to protect sellers who did not manufacture the product from liability in products liability cases. It establishes that a seller is not liable if they did not manufacture, design, alter, or modify the product and did not have knowledge of the defect. The bill also outlines conditions under which a seller can be held liable, such as if they made an express factual representation about the product or if they installed the product.
