Campbell Hausfeld/Scott Fetzer Company v. Paul Johnson
64A03-1705-CT-984
Civil tort. Affirms and reverses in part the grant of summary judgment in favor of Campbell Hausfeld/Scott Fetzer Company on Paul Johnson’s defective design claim and the denial of summary judgment with regard to Johnson’s failure to warn claim. Finds Campbell Hausfeld is not entitled to summary judgment on any of its asserted statutory defenses. Also finds the designated evidence establishes a genuine issue of material fact regarding whether Campbell Hausfeld provided adequate warning concerning the use of a Grinder with a cut-off disc. Finally, finds Campbell Hausfeld failed to establish its entitlement to summary judgment on the defective design claim. Remands.
