United States Tenth Circuit
HINER v. DEERE & CO., INC., 01-3335
Summary judgment was inappropriate on plaintiff's self-raising warning-defect claim under Kansas product liability law, as evidence creates a question of fact as to whether it would have been practicable for defendant to identify plaintiff as a product owner of a tractor; summary judgment on plaintiff's design-defect claims is reversed.
