Leibreich v. A.J. Refrigeration, Inc.

This case presents the issue of whether summary judgment for A.J. Refrigeration was appropriate either (1) because the truck driver’s actions in leaving the vehicle running and unattended were unforeseeable, intervening, and superseding causes of the appellants’ injuries, (2) because A.J. Refrigeration is not a manufacturer or assembler of the truck so as to be subject to strict liability in tort or (3) because A.J. Refrigeration had no duty to warn users of the truck. For the reasons stated below we find that the trial court erred in granting A.J. Refrigeration’s motion for summary judgment.
