Abstract

To better understand the policy underpinnings of the statutory bar of certain implied warranty merchantability claims, this Article first reviews the origins and the continued vibrancy of the doctrine of contributory negligence in North Carolina. The doctrine is then examined in the context of North Carolina's enactment of the Products Liability Act and the doctrine's applicability to the implied warranty of merchantability.
