The AP (12/31) reported, “An Oregon man whose 5-month-old son died last summer has filed a $5 million lawsuit against the maker of hammock-like baby beds. Jonathan Kuzma of suburban Gresham contends in the lawsuit filed Tuesday in Multnomah County Circuit Court that the bed made by Amby Baby USA of Minneapolis was defective and dangerous and led to the suffocation death of his son Matteo in August. The death of the Oregon infant and a 4-month-old in Georgia led to the Dec. 8 recall of about 24,000 Amby Baby Motion Beds.”

Dave Aronberg “said Florida needs to figure out ways to test as efficiently as possible.” The bill, “which will be up for debate in the spring legislative session, would require the state Department of Health and the Florida Building Commission to come up with new drywall standards.”
