David Silipigno - Interview

1
Roohan case against David Silipigno dismissed - A
black eye for Roohan
2
Interviewer. David, I understand Tom Roohan
filed a law suit against you personally based on
the closing of a company you were affiliated with
regarding the accusation of unpaid rent by the
company?
3
David Silipigno. Yes that is true. Unfortunately
people do inappropriate and desperate things
during a bad economy. Tom had agreed to let the
company out of the lease with 60 days notice. The
company gave that notice and it was accepted. Tom
then came on hard times and tried to distort the
facts for his own personal gain.
4
Interviewer. That's unfortunate. He tried to sue
you personally though? How could he do
that? David Silipigno. Tom basically hired a
family member who is an attorney and tried to use
the court system to extort a settlement out of me
because he knew I had the means to help him solve
his problem.
5
Interviewer. That's terrible. What was the
outcome? David Silipigno. The judge dismissed
Tom's case very quickly which I am thankful for.
The case had no merit and really was a pathetic
attempt at a money grab. It's nice to see that
the legal system works and that it disallows
these low end tactics.

People's true colors often come out during times
if stress and unfortunately the courts and others
saw a real ugly side of Tom Roohan.
Interviewer. Good for you. Thank you for your
time.
