“Mr. Edison James will not get a dime from me”, are the words of Claudius ‘Kon Kom’ Letang, the man ordered by a high court judge to pay damages to James for libel.
Letang of Pichelin who was ordered on Thursday to pay James $45,000 said he would prefer serve jail time “than to give Edison James a penny from my hard working earnings”.
High Court Judge Cheryll Mathurin, handed down the decision, also ordering that Letang pays court costs of more than EC$4,000 to James.
However Letang, speaking on Kairi FM’s Heng program, said he is not satisfied with the verdict.
“Mr. Edison James and the judge, I want to tell you all something. I want the judge to issue and arrest to send me to the jail. Mr. James can never get a penny from me. I do not know anything about James and what he did. I don’t want anybody to go and collect any money to for them to give me. I want to go to jail instead because he will never get a dollar from me,” he told the talk show.
According to the facts of the matter, earlier this year Judges of the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court (ECSC) dismissed an appeal by Letang against the High Court’s original decision.
James sued Letang for libel after he alleged that Letang made statements which were defamatory and which were motivated by “malice” .
Letang is alleged to have accused James of building a $4-million hotel in Barbados.
James is also expected to appear in court this week for a libel lawsuit against Legal Affairs Minister, Ian Douglas.
here is how it works:
You dont pay ur debt, you go to jail or further find or bothe for non compliance of a court order. After leaving Jail the court order still stands but with interest (punative increase) this court order is again ignored.
One way or the other u in jail or paying.
haaa boy cucumber i tell u if u reach up there you will face many other cucumbers and maybe bigger cucumbers than u too
don’t pickup the soap in the bathroom, and if a prisoner throws a piece in your plate, throw it back.. hahhaah cucum i suspect when you come out you will be well ventillated,remmember denny waiting for you
you don’t have to pay, and because of your arrogance i will orderer the court to sell your property and pay de man. the balance you will get if you dont owe the bank, if you do then you in sh*t
uneducated people ca really make bad news.
Cucum better pray there are no vegetarians in stocky.
STOP WORRYING BOUT THE CUCUMBER THE MAN JUSTT USEING HIS HEAD THE MAN NT STUPID WHY DOMINICANS FALLING FOR EVERYTIN.THE MAN KNWS THAT WHEN HE BEHAVE TTHAT WAY THE BIG MAN WILL PAY THE MONEYS FOR HIM.SIMPLE LOGIC.
go kon kom go kon kom whoosh too toosh!
if in stocky and a cucumber come there i eating wee.
You can see this DLP is not for the ordinary man. CuCum was doing the dirty work for them, but now CuCum is facing it he alone.
Thats the comment of an uneducated and stupid man, who depends on his friends in power for help, i hear him talk on the radio
he is an idiot
Cucumber say he get his information from de papyshow…isn’t that a telling indictment?
hey, remember that kon kom hav d party behind him, but lets see if they r really behind him now, lets see if they goin to assist in payin eddie. lets see how currupted they really r. there is more to come.
Cucumber you better think of paying that $45,000 to Edison James and vex with him.
So DNO what pic that nah? you could not get a pic of cucumber up there for people to see the big bad bajan.
Well Ququmber have a heights eh…..no judge, no constitution…..
Monkey see, monkey do….. they say the fish start rotting from the head….
I just hope he knows the treatment he is going to get is quite different from what the ones he copied from received….
Ignorance is a hell of a thing….
SOLID WASTE NOT SEEING THE STATE KON KOM HAVE MY POTTERS STREET POTTERSVILLE.THEM SERACH OFFICERS DOH HAVE NOTHING TO DO????
I wonder if Cucumber is reading all these comments on here, or is he so busy getting ready for jail.
Can he read? Guess he is paying someone to read it and pass the info to him.
read?
konkum please pay the dime or serve the time…… you to “DAM” Ignorant just like your fellow cabals. You ought to find relevant and factual information for your self. just humble man. Are u the mouth piece of the Government/Labour Party? “HUSH UR MUT”
Well if kokom files bankruptcy like he said do u think he can still go to jail..#jusaying#
Kon Kom represents persons like Wait a Minute and Buwo….hahahahaha…LMAO
kon kom don.t have to pay a dime, remove every thing you have from your name ,do only road side jobs no taxes.theirs no jail time in a law suit.your wife can be holding a millon dollars of your edy can,t get a cent from that.pay the $4.000.00 to the court and thats it
They will just have to seize the wife’s account. Maybehe canput it in his cousin’s name. or his nenen or his paweh, of his pastor or whoever… but he muswt pay EdaSan James.
if you were a friend of kon kom you would better advise him, its a shame to see in Dominica some people can be so foolish to follow their leader to hell
So when the income tax comes calling what will the wife say to them about the source of her $m? I guess if she cannot give an account then the money will go to the state and she too will end up at stockie. You see co cum is so stupid that nothing he tries will work because he has already broadcast to the world that he will not pay.
I guess kukum hatred for Mr. James will cause his death because I know this one is a hard medicine to swallow. Kukum, to know that your hard earn money has to go to EDDO. Alas, you will die. I feel you my brother, but you got to pay. We must not let politics divide us, we must let politics cause us to hate so much. We have one life to live, lets live it. You can belong to another team and live in peace. Just support your team so much so that the other team is almost non-existence. Look at you now. Pray for our leaders, pray for our opposition. There will always be leaders, there will always be opposition. Let your vote speak for itself.
Who said his money was hard earned?
Cum Cum doh care because Skerrit with pay that for him… that court order is crumbs from Skerrit’s many bank accouts.
Are you saying that Skerrit has a lot of money then? Not just the other day nah he became PM? Interesting!
but allu doh hear dat dey take the grip with the $20kus which was supposed to pay Eddo then?
Political governance in Dominica has really reached its lowest ebb.Somebody help me please. Is CuCum really the PRO for this corrupt cabal?
he is the assistant.. second to happyandGay.
CuCum, I told you last week to go and have a chat with Edison! You doe go yet? You think you bad? Listen boy, even if you go to jail, you still have to pay Edison. This is how it works in civil court. Boy, swallow your foolish pride and go to Marigot to have a word with Edison. Maybe he might just give you an ease up.
boy kon kom dem prisoners favourite vegetable is the cucumber wee..u gonna be in tings boi in d jail oye….
I hope you ‘blues’ have your wallet close by because the amount of money that some of the ‘idiots’ on Q-95 will have to pay soon, will make what the judge ask Kon Kom to pay to look like peanuts.
I just hope that while you guys are rejoicing and hailing the judge’s decision in this case, you won’t run and cry fowl in the cases to come. Remember Bubles patiently awaiting his case with Lennox???
More to come. So don’t hold y’all breaths eh, yet!!!!
And???????
How Bubbles going to pay his way in court? With the money from his “crab” sales???
LOL!!
DNO, can someone in the legal fraternity pl advise us as to if this is not a contempt of court, guess no constitution or no law applies for kon kom too, LORD HELP US ALL IN BEAUTIFUL LAWLESS DOMINICA
many people have verdicts against them and do not pay the amounts. It’s civil court – if cumcumber does not have the money…Edo will have to take measures to get his payment
people do that all the time…it’s just a matter of going after him in all possible ways to have him pay
Pure ignorance, but then again he can make such statment publicly because the PM is no example….”what xxxx constitution”
Idiota!
ACCORDING TO MR. MATT PELTIER,”IT IS BETTER TO BE CALLED A FOOL, THEN TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH AND REMOVE ALL DOUBTS.”THE CUCUMBER THIS TIME HAS OPENED HIS MOUTH WIDER THEN THE MOUTH OF THE ROSEAU RIVER AND WE ALL KNOW WHY. WE CAN REMEMBER AT A DLP POLITICAL MEETING IN TRAFALGAR, ONE SUNDAY AFTERNOON, TONY ASTAPHAN SAID TO THE DLP SUPPORTERS,”IF DON CHRISTOPHER OPENS HIS MOUTH,I WILL PUT CUCUM IN HIS BACKSIDE.” THE CUCUBER DIDN’T GET THE MESSAGE STRAIGHT,INSTEAD PUTTING IT IN DON CHRISTOPHER THE LAWER,AS INSTRUCTED BY TONY, THE FOOL PUT IT IN MR. EDISON JAMES WHO WAS REPRESENTED BY MR.CHRISTOPHER.NOW THE STUPID MAN HAS TO DISH OUT APPROXIMATELY $50,000.IT IS ALLEDGED THAT HUMTY DUMTY IS PLAYING PONTIUS PILATE.
..”Where ignorance is bliss it Tis folly to be wise…”
The judge must pity the fool before her court yet insist he pay for his tongue. I would add more to the charge each time this ignorant bastard opens his mouth. Konkom can’t even bring himself to the realisation that he is incriminating himself by running that trap of his once more on live radio. Sadly these are the people LEARNED men and women tolerate in Dominica because of political affiliation.
SO TRUE. Where money is involved corrupt men have no face.This is what we must not relent in ridding Dominica off.
Will he be charged again for referring to the judge as a thief.Look an ignoramus we boy.
Is CuCuM the PRO for the DLP?
WORKERS HAVE SOME FELLAS UP THERE TO DRILL KON KOM ALL THE WAY TO THE PROMISE LAND.
OHGADOOOOOOOOOOOOO KON-KOM FIRE WAITING FOR YOU I HOPE YOU DOH MEETW ID A CERTAIN FELLA FROM———— NO NAME NO WARRANT
HAHAHAH
BOY I LOVE THIS PLACE
allu forget man?? the WHOLE JAIL IS IN BLUE!!! kum boy u gonna need an extra large jar of vaseline.
mr is a dam a*** period!!!!
When a political party has as its mouthpiece an illiterate, what do you expect..Stuppesssssssssssssssssss !
Charge him again for accusing the judge.Charge him the price of a Diplomatic passport!
I TOTALLY AGREE
um excuse me…. will this be the 2012’s Personality of the Year…. lol… he start real early wi pal
I like that MOTS, BUT YOU WILL AGREE WITH ME THAT THAT figure is more handsome than CuCum!
LOL
GOOD LAUGHTER !
hhhhmmmmm i hope the ears of those in the diaspora are opened wide and clear…. clean off all kaka zorwieh… i hope u all move all eye kakaracks to see and read properly… i really do hope that u all don’t see sentences back to front and that u all don’t read from right to left direction…. i just hope dominicans everywhere can see what web we have found ourselves in… so i guess mr kor kom (not kon kom) can defy the laws of the court… who was given power by the land to carry out…
I always maintain this illiterate should be charged $ 2000 000 plus, even before he went on to accuse the judge. YOU CALL THAT DLP POWER!
A typical representation of DLP. This is what the once powerful and respected DLP has degenerated into.Ignorance, couuption, disgrace and shame. The does not know that after his jail sentence, he still has the money to pay again. By ridiculing and accusing the court/JUDJE he has also made it worse for him. That’s why jail or no jail, he has to pay.A Skerrit DLP spokesperson. SO IMAGINE..
what a fool u run your mouth now u want to go jail u still have to pay,or spend the rest off your life in jail hmmmm.
can someone please inform kon kum that this is a civil matter and that even if he went to jail he still has to pay the monies.
why do we like to blot out arrogance before we even know what is going on.
KON KOM, PAY THE MONEY AND FINISH WITH THAT. DONT WORRY EDDISON JAMES TIME COMING. YOUR OWN INFRONT AND HIS BEHIND. EDISON JAMES IS AMAN THAT LIKE COURT. HE WILL DIE GOING TO COURT FOR ANY LITTLE THING.
Eddison James trying to make back the money he had to pay to Mamo for the bugging… He who is without sin cast the first stone. Hear ye my people rejoiceth not for the hour is not yet come….. many more will have to suffer, many more will have to pay.
YA HE SHOULD JUS PAY IT .. WHEN EDISON GOT CAUGHT HE DIDNT SAY HE NOT PAYIN .. AND CUM CUM BEFORE YOU SPEAK GET A LAWYER ..
These are the voices of the DLP frontline soldiers. I honestly hope that their leaders will start educating them on truth to power.
well dey will just make salad with you up there nuh………….
I like that. LMFAO
Ha ha ha ha this is the best ever!! For the first time today I laughed……..thanks
LOLOLOL YEAH
THATS A CLASSIC
I regre such an approach from you. If you had seek legal advice and got proper representaion then the outcomes would definitely have been different.
I trust that your mind is changed. You have a role to play in Dominica’s development and spending Time in Jail will be counter-productive. Please review your decision and pay up the court.
I am in full support of you.
PRAY TO GOD.
I am trying to understand what you have said here but can’t. So can you say that again in english this time?
Why is an illiterate guy getting such recognition for displaying his badge of honor. Tony should caution this guy.
Tony does not care about kon kom!
I agree with you Kon Kom boy!!!
I guess you are no different from him. Ignorance is bliss
Idiot.
yes kokom dont pay i so want u to go jail and get it up ya… and then out on d road again and back in jail and so on and on and on,……
haha…well kon kom as ur name is will turn cucumber in jail oye…woyyyyyy
That is the arrogance of persons who always open their mouth to speak of what they know not. It also speaks to his ignorance because even if he goes to jail he is still required to pay the sum. He doesbn’t realize going to jail is still yet another way by which he is made to pay for blirting out his ignorance?
do you know of any other jokers like kon kom in the opposition party? bet you do.
