If they choose to set up a Christmas tree, then they are responsible for routinely inspecting it and ensuring that there are no hazards or dangerous conditions present. If the tree is in an area that is frequented by guests, then they must ensure that there is no risk of the tree falling over, guests tripping over wires, or ornaments/branches falling on guests, for example. If the tree is in an elevated area, then the property owner should make sure that it is properly anchored or tied down, so that it cannot fall onto anyone below. On the other hand, product manufacturers have the duty to ensure that their products remain safe for consumers to use. They must ensure that their products are free of defects in design, labeling, or manufacturing that could ultimately lead to incidents.

All claims are subject to deadlines or known as “statutes of limitations.” These determine the total length of time that claimants have to file their claims. If claimants do not file their claims on time, they can lose their right to sue altogether. So, how long do you have to file your claim? Under California law, all personal injury claims and wrongful death claims are subject to a two-year statute of limitations, meaning that claimants will only have two years to sue. If claimants do not file their claims within this two-year timeframe, then claimants will lose their right to sue. It is important to highlight that a number of exceptions may apply, which could toll (or pause) the deadline that applies to your specific claim.
