United States Eleventh Circuit


GRIFFITH v. GEN. MOTORS CORP., 01-11062/11457/12408

If successful, claims that a car company's selection of a lap-belt-only design constituted a design defect would foreclose an option specifically permitted by a Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard, thus the claims conflict with that federal law and are impliedly preempted.
