Gillis Reavis, Products Liability in Texas: Foreseeability and Warnings, 58 Texas L. Rev. 1323 (1980).
 

Abstract:
In this Note, the author writes that Texas law recognizes a strict products liability cause of action when a product is unreasonably dangerous and the dangerous condition results in physical harm. A product can be unreasonably dangerous either because of a flaw, a design defect, or a failure to warn. While exercise of due care is not a defense for flaw or design defect cases, it is a defense for inadequate warnings. This Note argues that Texas courts should apply to warning cases the same legal standards they apply to design defect cases.
