Is Electricity a “Product”?
So asks William Ruskin over at Toxic Tort Litigation Blog. (I missed this nugget back in September, and think it worth mentioning, albeit tardily). Ruskin comments on a recent Connecticut decision holding that “once electricity entered the homeowner’s residence, it constituted a ‘product’ rather than a ‘service’ and that plaintiff could proceed under the Connecticut Product Liability Act.” Ruskin considers this to be the “emerging majority view nationally.”
