Markvicka v. Brodhead-Garrett Co. | 76 F.R.D. 205 (1977)

Under certain circumstances, a civil defendant can assert a claim against a third person and make that third person a party to the litigation. This process is known as impleader. Impleader is accomplished through the filing of a third-party complaint. In Markvicka versus Brodhead-Garrett Company, we explore the proper use of impleader.

Markvicka was a minor student in the Ralston, Nebraska, school district. He was severely injured while using a jointer machine in his woodworking class.

An action was brought on Markvicka’s behalf against Brodhead-Garrett, the manufacturer of the jointer machine, in federal district court. Markvicka alleged that the jointer machine was defectively designed. Brodhead filed a third-party complaint against the Ralston school district. Brodhead alleged that the school district failed to adequately maintain the machine and to properly supervise students who were using it.

The school district moved to dismiss Brodhead’s third-party complaint. Brodhead opposed the motion.
