Grijalva Sues OW Town Council
Thu, July 31, 2014
A pair of noteworthy Orange Walk politicians were also at the Supreme Court today. UDP Standard Bearer for Orange Walk Central Denny Grijalva and PUP Mayor Kevin Bernard were there for a trial over a contractual dispute. Grijalva's company De-Mar's construction was hired by the former UDP Town Council to pave some streets in the town; he claims the bill came up to 188 thousand dollars - and that the council paid him less than half. He says the UDP council agreed to pay him the balance in monthly installments, but then a PUP council was elected, and he claims they have not honoured the agreement. So, his attorney Darrell Bradley sued the council. The case was heard today before Justice Sonya Young who has reserved judgment for September 15. The town council is represented by Eamon Courtenay.
