Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and HENDRY and FERGUSON, JJ.
508 So. 2d 1256 Florida District Court of Appeal, Third District (1987) Positive Treatment
Cited by 5 cases


Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Affirmed on the authority of Shaw v. General Motors Corp., 503 So. 2d 362 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987). See Wallis v. Grumman Corp., 503 So. 2d 366 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987); Melendez v. Dreis & Krump Mfg. Co., 503 So. 2d 365 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987); Brackenridge v. Ametek, Inc., 503 So. 2d 363 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987); Lane v. Koehring Co., 503 So. 2d 364 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987). But cf. Dominguez v. Bucyrus-Erie Co., 503 So. 2d 364 (Fla. 3d DCA 1986). As in Shaw, we certify to the Supreme Court of Florida the following question as being of great public importance:

I. Should the legislative amendment of section 95.031(2), Florida Statutes (1983), abolishing the statute of repose in products liability actions, be construed to operate retrospectively as to a cause of action which accrued before the effective date of the amendment?

II. If not, should the decision of Pullum v. Cincinnati, Inc., 476 So. 2d 657 (Fla.1985), appeal dismissed, — U.S. -, 106 S.Ct. 1626, 90 L.Ed.2d 174 (1986), which overruled Batilla v. Allis Chalmers Mfg. Co., 392 So. 2d 874 (Fla.1980), apply so as to bar a cause of action that accrued after the Batilla decision but before the Pullum decision.

Affirmed.
