In a short paragraph, answer the following questions with your own words( no copy-paste)

1. Colson went to Logon Drugs and bought some light bulbs for the hallways of his new apartment building. A tenant asked for one and Colson gave him one but told him he was responsible for getting his own from now on. The bulb, manufactured by Burnaby Brite, Ltd. and sold to Logon Drugs by Dandy Distributors Ltd., was defective, improperly made. It exploded and caught some curtains on fire. The tenant's apartment suffered $6,000 damage; he had to move out. He couldn't live there while repairs were being undertaken and had no choice but to find another place. It would take three weeks to get the apartment liveable again.

-Who could Colson seek legal action against? For what?

2. Jim was assigned to a different workroom at the factory. During the day he became increasingly upset with one of his new co-workers, Mr. Saur, who criticized everything he did. After several hours of this, Jim said, "I could do a little better in here if you kept your mouth shut." Saur answered, "you young punk, you make me sick," and with that he intentionally knocked over a machine that would have hit Jim if he hadn't jumped out of the way. Jim picked up a paper cup of water and threw its contents at Saur saying, "cool down, old man." Charlie, another worker, grabbed Jim and pulled him out of the room, away from Saur.

-Could Jim sue Saur for assault, even if he wasn't hit by the fallen machinery? Why or why not?
