FORUM « Around the web, January 11 | Petition to USSC re 2C decision on the Tort of Doing Business in South Africa » January 11, 2008D.C. Strict Gun Liability Statute Bites the Dust Yesterday a unanimous D.C. Circuit panel granted an appeal tossing a lawsuit based on an absurd District strict liability statute. The statute holds gun manufacturers liable for all deaths or injuries caused by handguns (none of which may be legally sold in the District). The panel dryly noted that federal legislation prevents this kind of law. End of story. Posted by Michael Krauss at 5:39 AM | TrackBack (0) |
