Description
-- Charlene Reece appeals summary judgment in favor of defendants Tambrands, Inc. Reece brought a products liability action after she used Tampax Super Plus Tampons and developed toxic shock syndrome (TSS), in December 1990. The trial court granted the defendants' motion for summary judgment on grounds that federal law preempts Reece's claims of "negligent or defective tampon design, to the extent such design claims are based on tampon absorbency or fiber composition." After the Court of Appeals denied discretionary review, the trial court granted Tambrands' motion for summary judgment and dismissed Reece's remaining claims that Tambrands violated express and implied warranties concerning its tampon. We reverse summary judgment on the design defect claim and affirm on the express warranty, implied warranty, and failure to warn claims.
