We are essentially sitting in the waiting room regarding some important issues pending before the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. Anyone who reads my material with any regularity knows, for example, that I (and more than a few products liability colleagues) await a ruling on the application of the Restatement (Third) of Torts. And that’s just one example of the issues on which we eagerly await resolution.
Of course we try to be patient while we wait, and try to keep busy with other issues in the law. Frankly, although the role of the Restatement and other pending matters are all interesting, will have a lasting impact when they are decided and will present plenty of fodder for later discussion and soapboxing by me and other commentators, what is currently grabbing my attention is the decision the court did not make so far this year.
