A recent development in
both tort law and class action practice is
the no-injury products liability claim. Meryl
C. Maneker was invited by the American
Law Institute - American Bar Association Committee
on Continuing Professional Education (ALI-ABA)
to author an article on this complex and evolving
subject.
In her article, appearing
in the May 2003 edition the The Practical
Litigator, Meryl C. Maneker reviews the
explosion of class action lawsuits that have
been filed in the past decade. Many plaintiffs
have recently attempted to bring class action
products liability actions that don't allege
typical tort damages. As Ms. Maneker notes,
the results of these lawsuits are encouraging
for many defense attorneys across the nation.
Ms. Maneker also discusses
the theories often asserted in these cases,
the results they have met with in state and
federal courts, and how the defense team can
properly respond to the claims.

Congratulations
to Meryl Maneker for her contribution to one
of America's premier law journals.
