1Opinion of the CourtSaufley, C.J.

[¶ 1] Craig Burns was injured when an overhead garage door struck him on the head at his place of employment. His product liability claim against the installer of the door resulted in a judgment against him entered in the Superior Court (Penob-scot County, Murphy, J.) following a jury’s determination that the installer was not liable to Burns. Burns challenges, among other matters, the court’s limitations on his ability to argue certain causes of action during trial. Finding no error, we affirm the judgment.
