1Opinion of the Court
GARWOOD, Circuit Judge:
Plaintiff-appellant Carol Frances Davis (Davis) appeals the reduction of her jury award for damages in her product liability and negligence action. Defendants-appel-lees-cross-appellants Engelhard Corp. (En-gelhard) and Aufhauser Brothers Corp. (Aufhauser), appeal the judgment against them on the ground that the trial judge refused their requested jury instruction. *171Because we find that the trial court erred in refusing to include the substance of this instruction in its charge to the jury, we reverse and remand. We do not reach the issues raised in Davis’ appeal.
