Task: Wrong Candidate Generation
Input (English): to a misrepresentation claim if the company knew the “off-label” use of its ladders was not safe. Thus the distinction between truthful and fraudulent off-label matters also matters when it comes to implied preemption. Mere “off-label” promotion, divorced from any negligent or fraudulent misrepresentations, would likely not run afoul of state tort law. See Gavin, 2013 WL 3791612, at *7; Caplinger, 921 F.Supp.2d at 1219-20. But Schouest’s affirmative misrepresentation claims are based on independent state law duties that Medtronic allegedly violated after the initial PMA process. Because these claims would apply to a seller of a product not subject to any federal regulations who engaged in similar alleged misconduct, they are not impliedly preempted. See Houston, 957 F.Supp.2d at 1179 (<HOLDING>); Eidson, 981 F.Supp.2d at 885, 2013 WL
