Summary
The Rhode Island Supreme Court affirmed the Superior Court’s summary judgment in favor of Avco, holding that the plaintiffs’ amended complaint did not meet the specific pleading requirements to invoke GARA’s misrepresentation exception and that the plaintiffs failed to establish causation for any new‑part claim under GARA’s rolling provision, so the statute of repose barred their claims.
