Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! This episode is the final in our Torts trilogy, where we're summarizing the topics from Torts we've covered in our "Listen and Learn" series. Today we're talking about strict liability and vicarious liability, and we review the key defenses - assumption of risk and comparative negligence.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Strict products liability of manufacturers and sellers
- Vicarious liability, or when one person becomes legally responsible for the torts of another
- Defenses in liability cases
- An attack plan for answering liability questions on the bar exam
