Sucks because they really gave it to him on a slow news day.

I don't think this is nearly as bad as that dude said on the news.

He's one of my friends and you won't find a harder working dude. Needed an accountant maybe. I know he supports his parents, wife and two babies.

This is really unfortunate.

Ok, but where is all the money? Completely gone by now?

Sounds like some shady dealings going on.

you get arrested for building shitty houses in Louisiana or not finishing work. bullshite. Have you ever even read Louisiana's home warranty act, or case law. Ask someone how had Chinese drywall? Try it sometimes.

He got arrested for the bad checks. 100k will do it easy as that is probably 15-20 felony charges.

If he had been ripping people off, there's no way his company would've gotten that big that quick. You don't last long or put up the number of houses in the Nola area he did over the last 3-4 years without your customers having positive experiences. The news channels had this guy on their morning shows and sh*t.

Sounds like he hit a rough patch after spreading himself too thin financially. Happens to a lot of people in residential construction. Bouncing checks in that industry is nothing new and nothing that's going away anytime soon.

That's why you should get an AIA contract, a bond, lien releases, and certified draws with retainage on every job.

Like I said, he could've obviously done a few things differently. He's not the type to steal from anyone. As far as I know.

It doesn't happen often, but it does happen. Contractors have been arrested for not finishing work.
