Last year the Chief Judge of the Commercial Court, Eva Mappy Morgan ruled in favor of Prestige and Alliance Motors, denying state lawyers’ appeal asking the court not to get involved into a US$10.7million vehicle debt case filed in that court, the Judge however stood her ground by ordering the payment to the businessman. The ruling by Judge Mappy followed years of litigation, involving the government and Prestige and Alliance Motors, one of the leading dealers in vehicles and spare parts in the country, and owned by Lebanese businessman Mr. George Haddad. It is about time that this government settles its financial obligation with Mr. Haddad and his Company. The case emanated in 2014, when lawyers representing Prestige and Alliance Motors filed an Action of Debt lawsuit against the government claiming US$10.7million for vehicles and spare parts they supplied government since 2003 up to March 2008, and are yet to receive the payment.
