Lites made special lights for Pools Inc. The lights were enclosed in plastic and Lites said they were completely waterproof. Pools Inc. bought many of these lights and installed them on the sides of swimming pools under water. Pools Inc. installed Lites lights in a large new community swimming pool for the town of Preston. The lifeguards at the pool noticed that the pool lights flickered, but didn't mention it to anyone. One busy Saturday, not long after the pool opened, the seals on the pool lights

cracked and water seeped into the lights. This then caused an entire electrical malfunction in the pool and it sent very strong electrical currents running through the water. Many people were swimming and they received major electrical shocks. People panicked and ran from the pool screaming. It was slippery on the pool deck and many people slipped and fell. Roger, a 45 year old doctor, hit his head and has permanent brain damage. Forty people suffered injuries from this event and contacted their lawyers. Pools contacted Lites over this but Lites reminded Pools that in the contract it clearly states, "Lites is not liable for any losses that may result from the use of their products." The people injured in the pool say they will sue Preston, Pools, Lites as well as the directors of the two companies. Mike Green is a director and CEO of Lites and has contacted his lawyer to find out if he could be held personally liable for these injuries. All parties contacted lawyers.
