The complaint, filed in Clark County District Court, claims the venue failed to provide safety instructions or require a liability waiver before allowing her to ride.

"Seattle-Based Stanley Sued for Lead in Tumblers"

Pacific Market International, the company behind Stanley tumblers, is facing multiple lawsuits from consumers over the presence of lead in its products, with one lawsuit alleging that the company marketed the tumblers as "safe" while failing to disclose the use of lead in manufacturing until January 2024. The lawsuits, filed in California, Nevada, and Washington state, seek punitive damages and a permanent injunction requiring PMI to disclose any lead or other toxins in its products. PMI has stated that their products contain a sealing material with "some lead," but they assure that no lead is present on the surface of any Stanley product that comes into contact with the consumer or the contents of the product.
