2015Where a plaintiff alleges that such warnings were not adequately given, the "plaintiff carries the burden of proving, in part, that the inadequate warning caused his injuries." Rivera v. Phillip Morris, Inc., 125 Nev. 185, 190, 209 P.3d 271, 274 (2009). 8 Because products liability claims allege strict liability, comparative negligence is not a defense to a prima facie case of such liability.
