Attorney General Tim Griffin issued the following statement announcing a summary judgment in his office’s case against David Tyler, owner of Tyler Pools:
“David Tyler defrauded customers from 2020-2021 by misleading them regarding the status of his contractor’s license, failing to provide promised goods and services for which customers had already paid, and failing to refund customers after projects were abandoned. He also threatened to physically harm customers when they complained about these practices.
“Yesterday, a Washington County Circuit Judge approved our motion for summary judgment. The court’s order requires the defendant to pay $73,361.59 in restitution to four victims and $110,000 in civil penalties to the State. It also enjoins him from owning, operating, or being employed by a residential or commercial contractor in Arkansas.
“I am grateful to Assistant Attorney General Amanda Wentz and Assistant Attorney General Reid Adkins for their outstanding work on this case. We will continue to fight on behalf of Arkansans to hold bad actors accountable.”
