New York has a new law holding gun manufacturers liable for the harm their products cause. Under the new legislation a lawsuit can be brought in cases where reasonable controls and procedures are not in place. It ensures that responsible manufacturers and dealers will not be held accountable for the actions of criminals. The state Attorney General and city corporation counsel can take action as can members of the public, corporations and associations.
