Abstract

The holding in Clevland v. Piper Aircraft Corpororation is in direct conflict with the analysis for the tort of crashworthiness and operates to undermine the fundamental social policies which formed the basis for the tort of crashworthiness. A thorough understanding of the Tenth Circuit's opinion, which is not binding on New Mexico state courts, and the reasons why the court misconstrued New Mexico law is essential for the successful prosecution of a crashworthiness case
