Khan v. Dell Inc., No. 10-3655; Third Circuit; opinion by Roth, U.S.C.J.; dissent by Sloviter, U.S.C.J.; filed January 20, 2012. Before Judges Sloviter, Greenaway and Roth. On appeal from the District of New Jersey. [Sat below: Judge Pisano.] DDS No. 03-8-xxxx [21 pp.]
Plaintiff Khan purchased a Dell 600m computer in 2004 that allegedly suffered from design defects, which prevented it from being used in a manner consistent with Dell Inc.’s marketing. Khan filed a putative consumer class action on behalf of himself and other similarly situated purchasers and lessees of defectively designed 600m computers sold from 2003 through 2006.
