Amend CSHB 4 as follows:
(1) On page 14, strike lines 56 through 58 and substitute
the following:
"standards or regulations at issue in the action.
(c) In a products liability action brought against a product
manufacturer or seller, there is a rebuttable presumption that the
product manufacturer or seller is not liable for any injury to a
claimant allegedly caused by some aspect of the formulation,
labeling, or design of a product if the product manufacturer or
seller establishes that the product was subject to pre-market
licensing or approval by the federal government, or an agency of the
federal government, that the manufacturer complied with all of the
government's or agency's procedures and requirements with respect
to pre-market licensing or approval, and that after full
consideration of the product's risks and benefits the product was
approved or licensed for sale by the government or agency. The
claimant may rebut this presumption by establishing that:
(1) the standards or procedures used in the
particular pre-market approval or licensing process were
inadequate to protect the public from unreasonable risks of injury
or damage; or
(2) the manufacturer, before or after pre-market
approval or licensing of the product, withheld from or
misrepresented to the government or agency information that was
material and relevant to the performance of the product and was
causally related to the claimant's injury."
