Case regarding home security firm headed to District Court
posted by admin in Home DepotWhether a Jackson firm advertised home security system installation without a license will soon be decided in Jackson County District Court.
At the conclusion of a preliminary examination today, Judge Michael Klaeren said there was probable cause to bind over the case involving the Total Security Agency but only by the “barest margin.”
Russ Jennings, who is now vice president of the Total Security Agency, was working for Safety Systems, a firm owned by Dan Decker, last year when he responded to a call for a home inspection and a price quote for a security system.
Margaret Clark, the home owner, said Jennings wore a Safety Systems shirt and never mentioned another company, but in a follow up e-mail, he gave a quote from Safety Systems as well as All American Security, a Tecumseh firm Jennings also represented.
Businesses don’t need a license to sell security systems, but they do need a license to install them. Both Safety Systems and All American Security are licensed, but Jennings also gave his e-mail address, which included the name of his company, the Total Security Agency, which was not.
