Also just curious but this company doesn't appear to have a Louisiana Contractor's License yet the City of New Orleans hired them to perform work which is illegal isn't it?



This would be a perfect case for the AG's office to look at.

Also I doubt this goes anywhere, even though it should.

If forensic accounting can confirm that the dates on those invoices are correct, then there's going to be some folks in trouble.

I'm pretty much permanently pissed about the idiocy of the events, but in the interview in the link posted by 08 above he sounds pretty on the level.

ETA: sorry got mixed up, I was thinking about the Trident Clint Bruce guy.

saw that story last night, gives you a whole lot of

the thing is, this is for a "security and support" service and is not even the contractor that did the physical removal work

just imagine what that might look like?

oh, and don't forget the overtime for the police and firemen

etc. etc.

Last one stamp says Paid 05/08/2017 but the date of the invoice is 05/12/2017. Interesting.......

Also -- LOL at stamping the invoice PAID coincidentally right smack on top of the contractors address (all 3 invoices).

Not really. They were hired to provide security. A "contractor's license" is needed for construction work.

I hope people are destroyed for this.

Nothing more rewarding than seeing arrogant pieces of shite get their due.

So the city of NOLA doesnt need to be invoiced prior to sending out a check? The city of NOLA pays everyone late as hell if ever but this company gets theirs before invoice?
