UJI 13-1408 NMRA
UJI 13-1408. Strict liability; evidence.
Under the “products liability” claim, what is customarily done by those engaged in
the supplier’s business is evidence of whether a risk of injury would be acceptable to a
reasonably prudent person. However, the acceptability of a risk of injury is determined
by the conduct of a reasonably prudent person having full knowledge of the risk,
whether such conduct is usually followed or not.
Compliance with [industry [customs] [standards] [codes] [rules__ [or] [governmental
[rules] [standards] [codes__ is evidence of the acceptability of the risk, but it is not
conclusive.
