In 2005 the Pennsylvania Supreme Court recognized Section 552 of the Restatement (Second) of Torts as the law of the commonwealth in Bilt-Rite Contractors v. The Architectural Studio, 866 A.2d 270 (Pa. 2005). Section 552 describes the duty owed when one party supplies information to others, for one's own pecuniary gain, where one intends or knows the information will be used by others. The tort allows a recipient of the information to sue the supplier for purely economic damages, even though there is not a contract between the supplier and recipient. Bilt-Rite represents an exception to the economic loss rule, which bars negligence actions for pure economic damages where there is no property damage or personal injury at issue.
