Dana Thompson, Plaintiff-appellant, v. Superior Fireplace Company

Jan 01, 1991

OUTCOME:

This is a products liability suit brought by an injured factory worker against her employer, the employer's parent company, and a labor union. The district court dismissed all defendants before trial. ... At the time of the dismissal of the employer, however, the district court had not yet ruled on plaintiff's motion to amend her complaint. As a result, we reverse the dismissal of the employer and remand for consideration of plaintiff's motion to amend. We affirm the dismissal of the union and the parent company.
