Date Filed Document Text
June 12, 2017 Opinion or Order Filing 73 Judge William G. Young: ORDER entered. MEMORANDUM AND ORDER"Even when read in the manner most favorable to Satchi, the facts in this case make evident that Rheon did not design, manufacture, nor install the conveyor belt that tragically killed Pasupathipillai. Thus, Satchis negligence claims fail on a threshold issue in product liability. See Mathers, 403 Mass. at 691. Further, Rheon never assumed any duty nor extended any warranty over the Piantedosi conveyor belt. The manufacturer of product owes no duty of care to the user of another product. See Carrier, 721 F.2d at 869. Thus, Satchis contractual and warranty claims against Rheon fail as matter of law. As such, all of Satchis alleged bases for claims under Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 93a are without merit. Accordingly, this Court GRANTS Rheons motion for summary judgement, ECF No. 43 , on all counts.SO ORDERED."(Sonnenberg, Elizabeth)
