Does Zimmer have a burden to prove reasonableness?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Fane v. Zimmer, Inc., 927 F.2d 124 (2nd Cir. 1991):

The Fanes use the lack of testing to show that Zimmer acted unreasonably. No such burden rests on the Fanes in proving the strict liability portion of their complaint; reasonableness is not implicated until the discussion of negligent design. Voss v. Black & Decker Mfg. Co., 59 N.Y.2d 102, 107, 463 N.Y.S.2d 398, 401-02, 450 N.E.2d 204, 207-08 (1983).
