Texas Supreme Court
Safeway Stores, Incorporated, Petitioner v. Certainteed Corporation and Certainteed Products Corp., Respondents
May 7, 198629 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 345
Summary
The Texas Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals and remanded for a determination of whether Certainteed's express warranty that its roof was "bondable up to 20 years" explicitly extends to future performance, while holding that the implied warranty claim is barred by the four‑year limitations period of Tex. Bus. & Com. Code §2.725(b). The dissent argued that the term does not create an express warranty and would have affirmed the lower court.
