TRAVERSE CITY -- The family of a teenager who was electrocuted while swimming at the Clinch Park Marina will announce a large lawsuit Wednesday.

Attorney Geoffery Fieger and Attorney Dean Robb say they plan to announce the 50-million-dollar dollar lawsuit at a morning press conference.

The lawsuit will be filed against the Traverse City marina in the death of Michael Knudsen.  The 18-year-old died August 15 while swimming with friends.

In a statement Fieger said bad wiring at the docks caused the teens death and they claim the marina knew about the problem before the accident:

Our investigation reveals, without question, that the water around the floating dock area was electrified as a result of improper electrical wiring.  The shoddy wiring and the danger of electrocution created by it appear to have been well known by the Marina prior to Michael's death. A horrifying death ofa  child could easily have been prevented with just a little care.

The two attorneys and family members will hold a press conference on this case at 10:00 a.m..  7&4 News will be there and bring you any updates on this case.
