Dave and Ray are teammates on their city's rugby team. Ray was injured early in the season and is unable to play for the remainder of the year. Dave forgot his mouthguard on the day of a game and borrowed Ray's mouthguard which, although it was medically formed for Ray's mouth, fit Dave fairly well. During a game Dave received a high tackle and lost several of his teeth. His attempt to sue Ray as well as the mouthguard manufacturer will be successful.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dave's lawsuit is unlikely to be successful because Ray is not responsible for Dave's decision to use his mouthguard, and the manufacturer cannot be held liable for misuse of a product not intended for Dave.
