[Amps] pacemaker and hf amplifiers questions

   I have an interesting question. What if my close proximity neighbor has a 
pacemaker & I'm aware of it, I'm running legal limit watts,
and their pacemaker stops pacing ( TILT! ) ?   Who's gonna be liable in a 
court case? The manufacturer or me?
Makes me wonder if this has actually ever happened....
Do they have a amp building shop in prison?
