It always amazes me how PCB Fabricators expect OEM's to be
responsible for testing a board to prove the Fabricator has
done his job. Why doesn't the Fabricator test the board to
insure he has done his job properly? Why is this cost always
passed down to the OEM?

Hi! This is JH.
I read the article "Ownership of Liability for Board Defects before and
After Assmbly" on October issue of CircuitTree. My customer is asking me to
pay for the components ,assembly labor, etc. loaded on the defected boards.
The board is $9.00 that I charged him. In return he wants me to pay $30.00
per board! He is holding the payment for other invoices (totalled more than
$10k), which has nothing to with this order. The electrical test was not
requested. The customer took his own risk to load the components without
having inspection. I am willing to replace the bad boards but not willing to
pay for the cost that I have no way to control.
My intention here is to seek for a knowledgeable attorney who has experence
in this area to punish this kind of customer(s) who don't care what you think
or what you say! In the article, it mentioned "tested many times in court."
Do you have any case numbers and documents available? Those can be very
helpful if they are presented to the judge or attorneys who also needs to be
"educated" .
