The short answer is 'no.' These are each distinct theories of liability against a manufacturer.

I do not practice in Texas but your question hasn’t been picked up in four weeks. Naturally, having the product available for examination would be preferable. But in general, that doesn’t necessarily preclude a plaintiff’s rights in a claim, particularly if the item is something of a generic... View More

You will need to contact an attorney who specializes in personal injury. They will retain a medical and other experts to investigate the causal connection between the waste and your father's cancer.

Classic problem with any rental institution. You are on the hook so it's easiest to keep busting your chops. As they are involved with lyft you may want to look for an attorney who handles employment cases and insurance "bad faith" cases and is a member of the Texas Trial Lawyers Association

In most states, a borrower of a product is able to bring a product liability action. Notably, this has not always been the case. The law used to require a contractual relationship of some sort between the injured individual and supplier of the product in order for the injured person to bring a... View More

This answer is somewhat complicated, but generally speaking, a drug manufacturer may be liable if they manufactured the drug incorrectly, concealed dangerous side effects of the drug, or failed to provide proper warnings about the drug. For example, a manufacturer of a blood thinner medication may... View More

You will probably need to retain a solicitor in England to sue her.
Theoretically, let's say someone sells their time for 4 hrs to a client, and they just completed their 4 hrs of time the client paid for which is at 12 noon. If they mutually enjoyed each other's company and both wanted and had sex at 1230, since it's off the clock post companionship... View More

If you are asking whether it is illegal if the money wasn't for sex, the answer is no it is not illegal.
Now, it may be difficult to convince law enforcement the first 4 hours was what was paid for and any sex after the 4 hours wasn't. But, I like the argument.
They (NEWAIR) will not release the name of the manufacturer to contact them for parts but I see other brands that are identical same manufacturer (like chevy, buick, cadillac)

Possible but that is lengthy. Some states have parts laws (check out NPR program on just your issue). Try online. There are some people who do repairs who have figured these out. Cheaper for you to pay them to repair than for you to file a lawsuit and chase them.
I have a vehicle in which I was paying a guy for in 2014. Eventually while I was still paying on the vehicle he went AWOL and I had no way of contacting him to send payment.

I have a 2003 Toyota tundra which is one of the highest risk for the airbags to explode, because it is a older vehicle. Also areas that are very hot as have high humidity raise the conditions of exploding.

Get it fixed. That's your damage claim. You want to file a class action? Talk to an attorney who handles product liability class actions. But your payout will be what it costs to have it fixed.
He says he has it but he keeps blowing me off with lame excuses.
answered on Feb 5, 2018
This is probably not an issue of criminal law. If you released the item to him voluntarily it is not a crime ... unless there is some reason to question the effectiveness of your consent. For example if he tricked you in the first place and never had any intention of fixing it, then it could be... View More
I was driving a rental car covered with a credit card LDW. I was rear-ended by a driver on the highway. She said she did not have her insurance documents on her but gave me her license and phone no. information. Now she is unreachable. Meanwhile, the rental company wants me to file for a claim....

My suggestion is that you can file the paperwork you have for the wreck with The Department Of Public Safety for Texas and they will place a driver license hold on her eligibility until she decides to get off her hump and help you resolve the claim. The insurance company for the rental should be... View More

You need a lawyer to sue these folks, which means the landlord and the roofing company. Let the court case determine who pays, between the two of them. Look up Landlord Tenant lawyers in the Texas city closest to you, on SuperLawyers. com
If I buy an item , let's say it is a notebook, a cartoon action figure maybe for example from its manufacturer or distributer.

The details of what you are selling are missing. Let's say that this is a knock-off purse, that LOOKS like the genuine article. But, is counterfeit.
You cannot buy it from a site, like Amazon, and then sell it, if you are aware that it is a knock-off.
If all licensing fees... View More

If the product is sold in your state you can sue in your state. But you won't be making a product claim without a lawyer,
and it'll be tough without the product. So you can contact a member of the Texas Trial Lawers Assn that handles product liability cases--they give free consults.

If you have the product and the manufacturer does business here, possible to sue here. Otherwise, cherchez un avocat Francais (look for a French lawyer).
