JONES WARD PLC has learned that the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission ("CPSC") has announced a recall of over 206,000 step stools sold at Target stores nationwide. The CPSC recall notice advised consumers that the step stools may break under the weight of the user, which poses a serious fall and serious injury risk. To date, Target has notified the CPSC of 26 reports of stools breaking, including nine injuries. However, as JONES WARD's lawyers know from experience, the CPSC receives reports of very few of the actual injuries that occur because most consumers are not aware of the reportiing process.
