Modifies provisions relating to products liability claims

HB 3104 modifies products liability claims by redefining "defective condition" to include manufacturing defects and design flaws that could have been avoided with reasonable alternatives. It replaces joint liability with a pure comparative fault system, meaning a plaintiff's recovery is reduced by their percentage of fault (e.g., if 30% at fault, they receive 70% of damages). The bill also clarifies that defendants can argue plaintiff fault as an affirmative defense, and each defendant pays only for their allocated share of fault, not the full amount. This directly affects manufacturers, injured consumers, and courts handling product injury cases.
