INTRODUCTION
This is a products liability action brought in diversity by the survivors of Kevin Meyer-hoff, who was killed when a tire he was inflating exploded. His survivors sued the tire manufacturer, Miehelin Tire Corporation, and the product seller, Timpte Trailer Company, under various theories including negligent failure to warn. The district court determined in pretrial proceedings that Timpte was entitled to summary judgment. After trial and a verdict for the plaintiffs, the district court granted judgment as a matter of law in favor of Miehelin.
