Exclusive Reporting By Ricardo “Gladiator” Welch, Civil Rights Activist
JUDGE: DEFENDANTS ARE “IN CONTEMPT OF COURT” BY REFUSING TO PAY GLADIATOR HIS MONEY-DEBT
Date: 27/9/2018
Time: 11:am
Courtroom: POS 23
Judge: Justice Dean-Armorer
Subject Matter: Sale of Andy Williams’ Property
It was last Thursday when the Honourable Madam Justice Dean-Armorer made it abundantly clear to Andy Williams’ Attorney Michael Rooplal that his client has to pay the money judgment debt to Ricardo Welch, the “Gladiator”.
On May 23rd 2018, Gladiator filed an Application pursuant to the Remedies of Creditors Act Chap. 8:09 for the sale of Judgment Debtor, Williams’ property to satisfy the fruits of his money Judgment delivered on April 11th 2017.
The $700,000.00 has rapidly increased to over $1M owing and due to a daily statutory interest rate of 5% from 2011.
That the money Judgment must be paid by Judgment Debtors: Devon Welch (to pay $200,000 plus daily statutory interest of 5%) and Juliet Davy ($150,000 plus daily statutory interest of 5%) and Williams ($650,000 plus daily statutory interest of 5%).
These defendants are running-up their own debt by a daily interest of 5% when they continue in their refusal to make payments to Gladiator.
The learned Judge further mentioned at the hearing that Williams (including Devon and Juliet) is in “contempt of court” by ignoring her orders since April, 2017 to pay Gladiator his Judgment money.
To date, none of the Judgment Debtors have demonstrated a “genuine” effort nor made any attempt to pay or settle their debt-payments to Gladiator even though the money debt continues accrue in interest every living day.
They have not even offered a written apology. Gladiator have been very much patient with these debtors who feels they can escape the law and payments.
During last Thursday’s hearings for the sale of Williams’ property Gladiator told the Judge that he is even willing, “in good faith” to avoid having to sell Williams’ property to satisfy the fruits of his Judgment if Williams makes a down-payment in the sum of $200,000.00 plus statutory interest by Friday last, and to pay $10,000.00 per-month including 5% statutory interest.
Attorney Rooplal told the Judge that he needed a week for his client to determine Gladiator’s suggestion for said payments. The learned Judge was not satisfied and disagreed with Attorney Rooplal.
Justice Dean-Armorer subsequently stand down the hearing for a few minutes to allow Attorney Rooplal to speak with his client to negotiate payments with Gladiator.
It resulted in Williams suggesting a down-payment of $5,000 and $2,000 every month until the entire debt is paid off.
For Gladiator, such methodology of payments was an insult to his intelligence which was witnessed by Wendell Eversley and Dougla Thomas.
When the matter resumed Attorney Rooplal informed the Judge that no agreement was reached on payments of the debt.
Gladiator told the Judge that he is left with no choice but to proceed with the sale of Williams’ property. He further told the Judge that all of the Judgment Debtors are deliberately avoiding payments.
The Judge vehemently stated that they, the Defendants, must pay the money since she have already ordered such money payments be made to Gladiator.
It is to be noted that both Devon and Davy deliberately refused to attend last Thursday’s hearings, actually defying and tempting the Court’s patience. The Judge noted their absence.
Furthermore, Devon and Williams also refused to attend last Friday’s hearings. The Court noted their absence.
Notwithstanding the above, Gladiator wants the Court to send a very strong message to these judgment debtors who continues to defy and deliberately disobey the Court’s Order and its patience.
Justice Dean-Armorer already pronounced last Thursday that the Judgment Debtors are in “contempt of court” which is likely to cause their imprisonment or to pay a fine for disobeying the Court’s Orders.
Hearing is adjourned to October 22nd and November 29, 2018.
