Subrogation • No Warranty of Creation in Workmanlike Manner

Harleysville Pref. Ins. Co. v. Danby Prods., PICS Case No. 16-1525 (C.P. Monroe Oct. 6, 2016) Williamson, J. (7 pages).

Following its compensation of an insured for fire damages due to a defective appliance, the insurer sought to recoup its losses by suit in subrogation against the manufacturer and seller of the defective item. The manufacturer raised preliminary objections based on legal and specificity insufficiencies and improper verification. The court granted defendants’ motion in part and denied in part. The complaint of workmanlike creation was stricken as inapplicable.
