Scenario Mowers, Inc., a fictional company, has a flourishing lawn care business. The business has two full-time employees who have been with the company for five years. All employees are trained on using the lawn equipment and, upon being hired signed a waiver-of-liability contract limiting liability for the company. The owner, Brian, tells his employees “Not to worry – the company will protect you!” One employee, Lori, was on the job cutting a lawn. Lori was riding a mower, a Ferrari 2000, which was three years old and in good working condition. The step-up on the mower had writing on it with a warning sticker to replace the sandpaper liner for traction every three years due to normal wear and tear. It was replaced every three years as required. Lori stepped down off the rider, slipped because of moisture from the grass, and severed her pinky toe on the mower blade. When she fell to the ground, the mower continued through the grass and proceeded by itself to cut and mulch a neighbor’s prize roses. Peta, the neighbor, was preparing for a rose competition with a potential grand prize of $10,000. Instructions Consider the above scenario and write 3-4 pages in which you make the following determinations. Make sure to cite and explain the law for each determination. Pursuant to contract law requirements, determine whether the waiver of liability signed by Lori is a valid contract and whether verbal assurances by Brian become part of the contract. Support your response. Determine whether Peta, the plaintiff, has a product liability case against the manufacturer for each of the following defects. Support your response. Design. Manufacturing.
