Abstract

The article discusses the economic loss torts law doctrine and a recommendation for the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania to adopt such a rule as of June 2011 as a means of delineating a clear line between contract and tort law claims in the state, including products liability claims. A two-year difference between the Pennsylvania statute of limitations for contracts and the statute for torts is also examined.
