More Marc Labate / Allied Construction news

So today I find out that the contractor we hired to remodel our bakery, Marc Labate of Allied Construction, was sued and LOST in small claims court to another victim we will call Bee. Bee is one of the victims in a group of us that try to stay in touch with any updated news. From what I understand, she won her case and was awarded a good amount in damages. As of this writing, I understand she is having difficulty collecting a penny of it. (No suprise.) Another victim, who we will call Joan, settled during mediation prior to this claim.

We are awaiting the next case against Marc involving another woman who we will call Mary. Mary has been in touch with many of the victims and has gathered statements and references and forwarded them to detectives at the Austin Police Department.

And I was contacted by another victim, whom I will call X, who told me he had the same situation after hiring Marc Labate on Craigslist. The numbers keep growing by the day...
