ed States) 3.4 Jurisdiction James Clayton Allison, a resident of the state of Mississippi, was employed by the Tru-Amp Corporation as a circuit breaker tester. As part of his employment, Allison was sent to inspect, clean, and test a switch gear located at the South Central Bell Telephone Facility in Brentwood, Tennessee. One day, when he attempted to remove a circuit breaker manu- factured by ITE Corporation (ITE) from a bank of break- 60 ers, a portion of the breaker fell off. The broken piece fell behind a switching bank and, according to Al- lison, caused an electrical fire and explosion. Allison was severely burned in the accident.
