New York lawmakers move to open the gun industry to liability lawsuits
CNN
New York State lawmakers passed a bill Tuesday that allows for civil lawsuits against gun manufacturers, distributors and dealers for how they market and sell firearms.
If signed into law by the governor, New York would be the first state to clear an avenue for civil litigation against gun industry stakeholders in this way. The statute says industry stakeholders can be held liable for the illegal or "unreasonable" sale, manufacture, distribution, importing or marketing of firearms that cause harm to the public as a "public nuisance."More Related News
