DONOGHUE V. STEVENSON (1932)



donoghue v. stevenson
Donoghue v. Stevenson is often referred to as the ‘snail in the bottle’ case

Donoghue v. Stevenson, also known as the ‘snail in the bottle case’, is a significant case in Western law. The House of Lords’ ruling in this case established the civil law tort of negligence and obliged manufacturers to observe a duty of care towards their customers. The events of the case took place in Paisley, Scotland in 1928. While attending a store, Ms May Donoghue was given a bottle of ginger beer, which had purchased for her by a friend. The bottle was later discovered to contain a decomposing snail. Since the bottle was not made of clear glass, Donoghue had consumed most of its contents before she became aware of the snail. She later fell ill and a physician diagnosed her with gastroenteritis. Donoghue subsequently took legal action against Mr David Stevenson, the manufacturer of the ginger beer. She lodged a writ in the Court of Sessions, Scotland’s highest civil court, seeking £500 damages.



Donoghue could not sue Stevenson for breach of contract, because a friend had purchased the drink for her. Instead, her lawyers claimed that Stevenson had breached a duty of care to his consumers and had caused injury through negligence – an area of civil law which at the time was largely untested. Stevenson’s lawyers challenged Donoghue’s action, on the basis that no precedents existed for such a claim. They referred to an earlier action by Donoghue’s lawyer, Mullen v. AG Barr, where a dead mouse was found in a bottle of soft drink; judges in this case dismissed it because of a lack of precedent. Donoghue’s initial action failed, however she was granted leave to appeal to the House of Lords, which at the time still had the judicial authority to hear appellate cases. The leading judgement, delivered by Lord Atkin in 1932, established that Stevenson should be responsible for the well-being of individuals who consume his products, given that they could not be inspected. The case was returned to the original court; Stevenson died before the case was finalised and Donoghue was awarded a reduced amount of damages from his estate.

The outcomes of Donoghue v. Stevenson established several legal principles and precedents:

Negligence. Firstly, the House of Lords ruling affirmed that negligence is a tort. A plaintiff can take civil action against a respondent, if the respondent’s negligence causes the plaintiff injury or loss of property. Previously the plaintiff had to demonstrate some contractual arrangement for negligence to be proven, such as the sale of an item or an agreement to provide a service. Since Donoghue had not purchased the drink, she could prove no contractual arrangement with Stevenson – yet Lord Atkin’s judgement established that Stevenson was still responsible for the integrity of his product.

Duty of care. Secondly, the case established that manufacturers have a duty of care to the end consumers or users of their products. According to Lord Atkin’s ratio decendi, “a manufacturer of products, which he sells… to reach the ultimate consumer in the form in which they left him… owes a duty to the consumer to take reasonable care”. This precedent has evolved and now forms the basis of laws that protect consumers from contaminated or faulty goods. These protections began as common law but many have since been codified in legislation, such as the Trade Practices Act (Commonwealth, 1974).

Neighbour principle. Thirdly, the Donoghue v. Stevenson case produced Lord Atkin’s controversial ‘neighbour principle’, which extended the tort of negligence beyond the tortfeasor and the immediate party. It raised the question of exactly which people might be affected by negligent actions. In Donoghue’s case she had not purchased the ginger beer but had received it as a gift; she was a neighbour rather than a party to the contract. Atkin said of this principle: “You must take reasonable care to avoid acts or omissions which you can reasonably foresee would be likely to injure your neighbour. Who, then, in law, is my neighbour? The answer seems to be persons who are so closely and directly affected by my act that I ought to have them in [mind] when I am [considering these] acts or omissions.”

I dont have the time but let me help you here:. U will give a speech. is a must!

when you are called, stand up, clear your throat and head to the stage.

Good day ladies and gentlemen. pls permit me to use this time to say welcome to everyone here once again. my name is Emeka and i am the bestman for todays occasion. honestly speaking, i have known Emeka for time immemorial. we were classmates and happen to be room mates in the same citadel of learning. this was 13yrs ago. Today reminds me of the discussion i had with him 13yrs ago while we where still in the university. It was a long one. we talked about many issues bothering life and academics. Paramount to that discussion was the issue of marriage. At the tail end of our talk, he called me and said, put ur name, on my wedding day, u will be the bestman. today is that day! but i am not the best man. Emeka is the best man, and because he is the best man thats y put the brides name here is getting married to him cos i believe every woman wants the best man!
in this paragraph, describe ur friend, how gud he is etc,
in this last paragraph make a joke eg Gentlemen and ladies On a lighter note while i was talking about my friend Emeka, i noticed the bride was itching him. i was wondering what could be the problem not until i realized the fact that they were in a haste. yes they were! they wish this occasion could close so that they could go home to put their things together.

Well, as they go home to live together, we pray that ............

See the attached file which shows the different classes of fire and the CORRECT extinguishing agents for them. Fire ext. are also color coded pls know them.

Well, when next you see smoke coming out of the engine don't open the bonnet rather use the CORRECT TYPE of fire extinguisher to fight the fire through the exhaust pipe. opening the bonnet will allow oxygen in which will cause more fire.

Terminal Operator Raise Alarm Over Billions Of Naira Being Lost To Lingering Strike By Transporters
ARTICLE | SEPTEMBER 16, 2015 - 11:49AM

Barely one week into the withdrawal of service from the seaports by road haulage operators in Lagos ports, a terminal operator; ENL Consortium has said that more than N50 billion has so far been lost by the port concessionaires as well as revenue collecting agencies of Government .
ENL also disclosed that since the commencement of the industrial action which was embarked upon by truckers, there has been a massive congestion at the terminal even as he claimed that truck drivers and their assistants are now being fed by the concessionaires.
Head of Security and Safety at the terminal, Mr. Raphael Oyinloye gave the revelation yesterday at a meeting between the transporters and terminal operators in Lagos.
Oyinloye also raised alarm that should the strike linger, local manufacturers will have no option but to shut down their operations.
The ENL representative drew the attention of the government to the fact that raw materials could no longer get to the manufacturers due to a halt in maritime haulage, pointing out that even food items from the north have not been able to come down to Lagos state.
He further appealed to the truckers to comply with the directives of the Lagos state government which restricts their movement to 9pm and 7am.
Commenting on the effects of the strike, he said : "I can say categorically that all the ports including Tin Can Island Port and Lagos ports Complex and smaller jetties have lost about N50billion in the last one week, due to this strike"
"As an importing nation, we rely heavily on import from overseas and Nigeria’s gateway economy is the hub in the sub region"
"All the containers and bulk cargoes that are coming in are being used locally and those local manufacturers (in no time) will be shut down if this strike continues".
"Government should also be aware that people are working in those factories and if they don't have raw materials coming from the ports anymore, then, there will be no production"
"If the Lagos State Government continues to restrict movement of trucks by night, then security issues will be a major problem at night because during broad day light street urchins vandalise cargoes on their way out of the warehouses talk less at night".
He added that revenue is being lost by Customs, NPA and others, and that, "if vessels no longer come in and they are not discharging a lot of monies will be lost".

He further told the large gathering of truckers to put their trucks in perfect working condition for it to meet the required standards, adding that it is necessary for the trucks to meet the required standards.
The meeting has in attendance top executives of all the transport groups from the maritime sector led by the Executive Secretary of Nigerian Association Road Transport Owners (NARTO); Mr. Aloga Ogbogo.
Speaking on behalf of the truck operators, Operation Manager of NARTO, Mr Stephen Okafor appealed to the transporters to exercise a little patience, saying that "even though weare clamouring to go back and work , we should not endanger our lives"
He added that insecurity at night poses a serious danger to the lives of truck operators and that the truckers will continue to fight for what they want.
