Saldivar Says Eamon Courtenay Is Out To Get Him
posted (August 7, 2014)
But, a bulletproof vest wouldn't do him any good in a lawsuit anyway. And, we are told, that's just what Saldivar is facing. The Courtney Coye law firm warned him that if he didn't return the money on by last week Friday, August first, they would institute legal proceedings against him.

Well, Saldivar is unperturbed, and he told us, neither is he surprised since he feels Eamon Courtenay has had it in for him for a long time:..

Arthur Saldivar. Former Attorney - Melonie Coye
"Mr. Courtenay have had from my assessment a hard on me for quite some time. I have no idea why. I don't really know him. I have no grudge against him - none whatsoever. But there are at least 3 occasions that I know of where he has made certain attempts. Again, I wish him well. You know at least on one occasion right, here in your studio after certain revelations were made involving the good party that I belong to and certain intrigue that were being contemplated what the response from that particular individual was. So don't put it out there as if this is some figment of my imagination and I am throwing things out there without any kind of basis, no man, come on please - let's be real."

Jules Vasquez
"You are talking about the specific time when Mr. Courtenay..."

"You don't have to remind me. You know well."

Jules Vasquez
"Well he called you liar."

"There you go. And you understand what that was all about. I believe that history has absorb me where that is concern. If is that my learned friend is in the process of recovering funds, I think that that 3.4 million dollars from Social Security should be found at some point and I believe the people would want to have that back."

Jules Vasquez
"Arthur, you sure you had to go there. I don't think any PUP has even mentioned that 3.34 million dollars. I don't think that's a permitted word in the PUP."

Arthur Saldivar. Former Attorney - Melonie Coye
"I don't think any lawyer has ever gone after another lawyer for fees."

Jules Vasquez
"But if you're saying that it's fees, well then you're justified to hold on to it."

Arthur Saldivar. Former Attorney - Melonie Coye
"I'm, just saying...certainly I would be if it happened the way they say. But it didn't."

Today when reached for comment, Courtenay would only say, quote, "Mr. Saldivar will have an opportunity very shortly to give an account to the Supreme Court for his actions. In the meantime, he should ensure that the monies are not spent."
