ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: It is the policy of the Commission to publish settlements which it provisionally accepts under the Consumer Product Safety Act in the Federal Register in accordance with the terms of 16 CFR 1118.20(e). Published below is a provisionally-accepted Settlement Agreement with Cinmar, LLC, containing a civil penalty of $3,100,000.00, within twenty (20) days of service of the Commission’s final Order accepting the Settlement Agreement. emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:55 Jun 09, 2014 Jkt 232001 2. The Commission is an independent federal regulatory agency, established pursuant to, and responsible for, the enforcement of the CPSA. By executing the Agreement, staff is acting on behalf of the Commission, pursuant to 16 CFR 1118.20(b). The Commission issues the Order under the provisions of the CPSA. 3. Cinmar (d/b/a Frontgate) is a limited liability company, organized and existing under the laws of the state of Delaware, with its principal corporate office located at 5566 West Chester Road, West Chester, OH 45069. Cinmar is a retailer of home furnishings and decorative household items. Staff Charges 4. Between November 2005 and July 2010, Cinmar sold approximately 38,000 Frontgate foldaway closet two- and three-step ladders made of mahogany wood and designed for use in walk-in closets (Subject Products, or Ladders). Cinmar sold the Ladders to consumers PO 00000 Frm 00007 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 33177 nationwide for between $89.95 and $149.50. 5. The Ladders are ‘‘consumer products,’’ and at all relevant times, Cinmar was a ‘‘retailer’’ of these consumer products, which were ‘‘distributed in commerce,’’ as those terms are defined or used in sections 3(a)(5), (7) and (13), of the CPSA, 15 U.S.C. 2052(a)(5), (7) and (13). 6. The Ladders are defective because the steps can break unexpectedly, posing a fall hazard to consumers. 7. CPSC staff charges that Cinmar received notice of the defect shortly after Ladder sales began in November 2005. Between 2005 and 2010, Cinmar received hundreds of reports of step breakage during first and early use, including reports of injuries to consumers. During that same time, Cinmar implemented design changes to eliminate the hazard posed by the Subject Products. Throughout this period, Cinmar also paid out claims filed by consumers who reported that they had been injured when the Ladders broke during use. 8. CPSC staff charges that (i) by September 28, 2007, Cinmar had sufficient information that reasonably supported the conclusion that the Ladders contained a defect that could create a substantial product hazard or created an unreasonable risk of serious injury or death and (ii) that Cinmar was required to inform the Commission immediately of such defect or risk, as required by sections 15(b)(3) and (4) of the CPSA, 15 U.S.C. 2064(b)(3) and (4). By that date, Cinmar had received more than 600 Ladder returns due to breakage and had been notified of at least one personal injury lawsuit filed by a consumer alleging injury from a broken Ladder. 9. CPSC staff charges that, when consumers contacted Cinmar regarding their broken Ladders, Cinmar routinely provided the consumers with replacement Ladders which Cinmar knew were just as likely to break. 10. Despite having information regarding the Ladders’ defect or risk, Cinmar failed to inform the Commission immediately, as required by sections 15(b)(3) and (4) of the CPSA, 15 U.S.C. 2064(b)(3) and (4). 11. Cinmar did not file its Full Report with the Commission until July 29, 2010. By that time, more than 1,200 consumers had returned their Ladders to Cinmar, most citing breakage, and others citing cosmetic problems. Also by that time, Cinmar had received notice of at least two dozen injuries, one of which required surgery and another necessitated hospitalization. E:\FR\FM\10JNN1.SGM 10JNN1
