Additional Notes
Owner of a drycleaning store suffered multiple herniations when a 200lb watertank which was supended from the ceiling fell onto the back of his neck while he was working. The water tank along with the washer and dryer was installed by the distributer of the equipment. The distributer did not have the required contracting license to install the equipment including the water tank which was negligently suspended from the 15ft ceiling above a work area. The distributer denied that they installed any of the equipment. In addition to filing suit a complaint to the State licensing board was made for performing contracting work without a license. The case was settled shortly before trial and not long after the case was settled the State licensing board who investigated the complaint found the distributer guilty of performing contracting work without a license.
