Property in Port-au-Prince, Haiti

Emmanuel Saintil - April 19 2012, 11:38 AM

Let me begin by saying good luck; I am very proud of all you try very hard to do for Haiti.

My wife has a property at Delmas that somebody had the nerve to build a house on it. She took him to court in Haiti; he was told to stop the construction, but he went ahead and complete it. The court has decided on my wife's favor, he supposed to either vacant the premise or pay for the property; but he did not do one or the other.

My wife would like to know how your government could help her to correct the wrong that was done to her.

Respectfully,

Emmanuel Saintil
