SMN News was also reliably informed that Rollocks was also trying to get Marlin to give him full authorization to manage Border Point some months ago. The source said Rollocks had a notary draft all the necessary documents but Marlin never accompanied him to the notary's office to sign off on the deal.
Well placed sources say Cimmeran Marlin was served on Friday. According to our sources, the new developments has left Cimmeran Marlin in shock since Julian Rollocks lost the case he initiated on March 15, 2010 against the Talking Drum Foundation. Last year March, Rollocks was ordered to hand over all the monies he collected on behalf of Talking Drum as well as all documents he had in his possession that relates to Talking Drum and Border Point Properties. On April 9th 2010, the judge in his ruling prohibited Rollocks from acting as a representative of the foundation, while giving Rollocks one week to turn over all documents, contracts and sub-contracts to Cimmeran Marlin.
However, the judge did not make a clear ruling on how Rollocks and Marlin should hammer out their dispute on the alleged claim that Rollocks made on his investment in the properties. The judge said back then that based on the letter to Rollocks by Talking Drum pertaining to the investments, Rollocks must substantiate his investment claims if a settlement is to be reached between the foundation and Rollocks. Rollocks had filed his claim on March 15 2010 but two days after the hearing Rollocks sent a cashier's cheque to the treasurer of the Talking Drum Foundation, Franklin Brison. At that time, Cimmeran Marlin said the cheque of $20,475, which the foundation received from Rollocks did not cover all the monies he Rollocks collected on behalf of the foundation. Rollocks also apologized to the foundation for having his brother sign a contract with him which would allow him to benefit 60% from the Border Point income.
SMN News learnt that Attorney at law Andre Kraaienhof of Gibson law firm represented Rollocks in this recent hearing. When contacted by SMN News on Monday, Rollocks said he could not comment on the case at this time.
Cimmeran Marlin confirmed that the bailiff Karl Arndell gave him the notification of the lien. Marlin said he does not know when the case will be called, he said all the booth holders at Border Point were also notified. It should be noted that the Government of St. Maarten granted the lease of Border Point to Cimmeran Marlin, founder of Talking Drum Foundation.
