U.S. Gypsum Co., 315 Md. 741, 755 (1989) (negligent misrepresentation requires “the plaintiff, justifiably, takes action in reliance on the statement”).

    The reason that Maryland courts are less likely to impose negligent misrepresentation liability when the plaintiff’s harm is only pecuniary is because such harm is less foreseeable and potential exposure is broader. White, 110 A.3d at 749; see also Vill. of Cross Keys, Inc. v. U.S. Gypsum Co., 556 A.2d 1126, 1133 (Md. 1989) (“[L]iability for negligent Case 1:16-cv-00815-GLR Document 37-1 Filed 11/14/16 Page 13 of 20 DMEAST #27464927 v3 14 misrepresentation resulting only in pecuniary loss is more restricted than that for negligent misrepresentation resulting in physical harm.”).
