U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Beam and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Products liability. Under New York claim preclusion law as
articulated in New York decisions, the prior grant of summary judgment,
dismissing plaintiffs' New York claims as time-barred, precluded the
assertion of the same claims in these federal diversity actions in
Minnesota; therefore, the district court properly applied the Full Faith and
Credit Statute in these cases, and the order granting defendant summary
judgment is affirmed.
