LRG Construction LLC v. Chris A. Montgomery and Montgomery Consulting LLC
Plaintiff says Chris Montgomery had an ownership interest in LRG and was one of four members, and that sometime after the formation of LRG, formed Montgomery Consulting. According to Montgomery, plaintiff says, Montgomery Consulting served as “operations manager’ for LRG and was compensated as a 1099 contractor, although there was no written agreement establishing the relationship. In late 2012, plaintiff says, members realized that Montgomery was compensating the consulting firm at the rate of 25% of gross profits on all projects. This compensation was infeasible, plaintiff says, and members voted to compensate Montgomery as an employee but not a member. Following a series of events and meetings that ended with a vote to terminate Montgomery Consulting, Montgomery wired $103,888 from LRG’s operating account into his personal bank account, leaving a negative balance, plaintiff says. Montgomery also drew down $50,000 from LRG’s line of credit and transferred those sums to LRG’s operating accounts. Members removed Montgomery from financial controls, plaintiff says, and the bank froze the balance of the line of credit, thus making it necessary for two members to lend LRG $25,000 each for payroll and operating expenses. Plaintiff says Montgomery has misappropriated at least $200,000 from LRG, began bidding against LRG on projects and disparaged LRG’s reputation and financial stability and seeks damages of not less than $200,000 and punitive damages of $300,000.
