Matt and Tim operate a shop selling LED lights, bulbs and tubes, called "Bright Light LED Lighting" ("Bright Light"). Their business is structured as a partnership. They agree that Tim is responsible for retail sales and customer service, and that Matt is responsible for purchasing, packing and storing.

Chu bought an LED light from Bright Light, which she installed in her garage. She was injured when the light exploded in the garage, leaving her unable to work for several weeks. The explosion also damaged her car. Matt packed the light for Chu's order. He mistakenly packed it with the wrong transformer. Chu seeks damages to cover medical expenses, lost wages and pain and suffering. She is also seeking compensation for the damage caused to her car. Tim argues that the damage is solely the responsibility of Matt.

Advise whether Tim can also be held liable to Chu under the law ofpartnerships. Refer to relevant legislation and appropriate cases to support your argument. (Donot discuss what Chu would need to establish to succeed in an action for the tort of negligence.)
