On Friday October 28, 2005, Robert Alex and Leonard Alex of Alex Brothers Construction appeared in civil court in Essex County, NJ( Newark). Alex Brothers Construction was found liable for violating the NJ consumer fraud act. The company was ordered to pay the plaintiff treble damages in the amount of $61,000 plus attorney's fees of approximately $15,000 dollars. Currently Robert Alex has decleared bankruptcy so there was an automatic stay of personal liability. However, pursuing him persoally is still an option once the banruptcy is setteled. This may clear the way for a criminal prosecution now that a judgement against the company for fraud was entered.
