SB682 & AB496 These bills seek to repeal part of the Civil Code 1714
<br>that deals with product liability. These bills were redrafted and
<br>gutted/amended from bills that were initially introduced to do other
<br>things. These bills were changed after the anti-gun advocates lost
<br>their "101 California Street lawsuit" against the firearms industry in
<br>the California State Supreme Court.
<br>
<br>The repeal of current law would only open the door of litigation to the
<br>manufacturers of lawful and legal consumer products. Manufacturers of
<br>lawful products should not be held responsible for the actions of
<br>criminals or any person who uses the product in a negligent manner.
<br>
<br>It is important that everyone continue to contact the legislature. These
<br>bills could be voted on at any time in the Assembly (SB682) and in the
<br>Senate (AB496).
