THOMPSON v. NEBRASKA MOBILE HOMES CORP.

No. 81-410.

647 P.2d 334 (1982)

Neoma THOMPSON, Plaintiff and Appellant, v. NEBRASKA MOBILE HOMES CORPORATION, Arnold Kruse, d/b/a American Ideal Homes; and Jack Boles, Defendants and Respondents.

Supreme Court of Montana.

Decided June 23, 1982.

Rehearings Denied July 15, 1982.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Frisbee, Moore & Stufft, David Stufft argued, Cut Bank, for plaintiff and appellant.

Jardine, Stephenson, Blewett & Weaver, Lon Holden argued, Great Falls, for defendants and respondents.

MORRISON, Justice.

Plaintiff, Neoma Thompson, appeals the decision of the Eighth Judicial District Court of Montana to dismiss her claim of strict liability in tort against defendants. It was dismissed because the only injury suffered by plaintiff was to the product itself, the mobile home. We reverse the decision of the District Court and hold that a strict liability action can lie when the only damage suffered is to the defective product itself.
