Q: I'm in a wrongful death lawsuit with Bayer. Can their history of government fines be construed as a "pattern of behavior

Bayer has been fined and sanctioned by the Justice Dept. and other government agencies any number of times, including recent ones regarding various products they produce and which have caused harm.

Bayer makes a lot of different products from pharmaceuticals to seeds.

I would think to establish a pattern relevant to a particular suit the fines would need to involve the same product and the same or similar behavior as in your pending lawsuit.

How have you been harmed by the dealership?

You co-signed.

So you and your friend are jointly liable for the purchase price of the car.

If anything, you have a claim against your friend for wrecking the car.

That sounds about right. Your auto policy probably covers damage to the vehicle itself (collision or comprehensive coverage) and damage that you cause to other people’s property (liability/property damage coverage).

It certainly sounds like you have a valid claim against either Discount Tire, the tire manufacturer, or both. The real question in my mind is whether there were significant injuries from the crash, as these can be expensive cases to pursue.

No. That's not what use inconsistent with means. Who knows, the company may have consulted an industrial hygienist.

Also, to sue for damages you have to show you actually suffered something--not could have.

If you have a concern you may report it to your state OSHA or US Dept of Labor OSHA
