Review article, "It's Getting Ugly Now In One Bal
Harbour. Partner Wants $17.5 Million For Fraud." Full text can
be found in the July 22, 2014, issue, but a synopsis is
below.
The former co-owner of a now bankrupt Miami hotel and
condominium development has sued his ex-business partner, alleging
he was fraudulently convinced to lend $17.5 million for the
condotel that was never intended to be repaid.
The defendant's attorney, Joseph DeMaria, says the
plaintiff is "deflecting attention" after being pursued
by the liquidating bankruptcy trustee.
"He claims he was left in the dark from the
management of One Bal Harbour...," said DeMaria, who noted he
has evidence that proves otherwise.
