Alaina (and probably my daughter, Shannon) became concerned that the nice neighbors didn’t seem to be feeding Oreo. Oreo had grown attached to Alaina and would come across the street to play with her. They allowed Alaina and the other neighborhood children to play with the kitten and when they were trying to name her, Alaina even suggested they name her “Oreo”.
Here we are five years later and the couple who lives across the street from us took in a cute little black and white stray kitten last summer. Time flies when you’re cleaning the litter box. Through the years, Alaina has fed them, played with them, and created little box houses for them but eventually they would disappear, and we would dodge the bullet of explaining “no more cats” to her. There are always stray kittens and cats wondering around. I live in an area of Wheeling where there are a lot of woods, and people dump their unwanted felines. Even if it was a chair I wanted to sit in! I immediately warmed up to Gary and allowed him to casually slip into his position as “king of the house.” Meaning, wherever Gary wanted to lie, he would lay. My granddaughter, Alaina, named him after Sponge Bob Square Pants’ pet snail, Gary, and she called the stuffed animal he played with Sandy. They brought their young, large and loveable short haired yellow cat named Gary. Suhrmann, 8 Utah 2d 35, 37, 327 P.2d 822, 823 (1958).A few years ago, my daughter, Shannon, and her family moved in with me. Third, all else failing, always warn those using your things about any known problems or defects. Second, do not allow others to use things that are not in good repair. So, what can you do to mitigate your risk? A few tips. All three scenarios could expose you to liability under the framework set out in Schneider. Or suppose that you provide a home-cooked meal that contains common allergens like peanuts. Or suppose you let your nephew borrow your car knowing that the tires are bald. For instance, suppose you loaned a ladder to a neighbor knowing that one of the steps routinely comes loose. While the wholesaler in Schneider escaped liability, scenarios that potentially could give rise to liability are myriad. In other words, the wholesaler escaped liability because the wholesaler had no knowledge that the retailer intended to sell the pork raw or uncooked. The Utah Supreme Court affirmed a jury verdict in the wholesaler’s favor on grounds that the retailer knew that the pork was raw and unprocessed and otherwise had assured the wholesaler that the retailer would cook the pork before selling it to others. The consumer sued the wholesaler for compensation for the injuries suffered. The retailer then sold the pork to a consumer, who contracted trichinosis, a food-borne disease caused by a parasite, after eating the pork. Suhrmann, in which a wholesaler provided a retailer with raw, unprocessed pork. Third, the supplier fails to use reasonable care to safeguard against the danger or to inform the user of the facts which make it likely to be dangerous.
Second, the supplier knows or reasonably should know that the user will not realize the danger. First, the supplier knows of the chattel’s dangerous potential. The supplier of a chattel incurs liability for injury caused thereby if three conditions are met. Under Utah law, a person who supplies a “chattel” – a fancy legal term for personal property – to another potentially faces legal liability, if the chattel causes physical injury to the person who uses the chattel. Have you ever loaned a tool to a neighbor to assist with a household project? Or how about a car to a relative to assist with getting to work or school? Or how about provided a homecooked meal to mother who recently gave birth to a new baby? In doing so, did it even cross your mind that your good intentions could expose you to legal liability? If not, it should have.
