Thanks for your input, Pat. The person involved is down about $2300, so it's a fair amount of money. I don't know anything about the business organization of this business, but it could be that they have filed bankruptcy and there is no one to sue? And apparently the owner of the business is now off island?
I'm afraid there's nothing the person can do, but the best thing to do would be at least consult an attorney on island. Anyone have an attorney on island they can recommend?
