Mix Up & Blenda

- It has been acting on behalf of the Government of Jamaica through GOJ's liaison Harold C.W. Brady of Brady & Co.
- That MPP ceased continuing to represent the GOJ through Harold C.W. Brady of Brady & Co. as of February 8, 2010.
The country was told in no uncertain terms that the GOJ had never hired any consultant, law firm, person or entity to represent the GOJ in any discussions involving treaty obligations. It has turned out that the US law firm MPP was certainly under the impression that it was acting on behalf of the GOJ. Moreoever the US State Department and Justice Department were certainly under the impressions that in talks with MPP the law firm was acting on behalf of the GOJ.
Now that we have been informed that the now-disputed contractual relationship ceased as of February 8, 2010, certain interesting questions arise:
- When exactly did the now-disputed contractual relationship commence?
- Under what set of circumstances did MPP "cease activities on behalf of the Government of Jamaica through Harold C. W Brady of Brady and Co."?
- Which party initiated the cessation?
- What reasons were given?
- Did both parties formally agree to the cessation (in writing)?
- Was the outstanding balance of the agreed retainer ever paid?
- Did MPP act in pursuance of the contract after the September 18, 2009 invoice was settled?
- Are there any other invoices for services rendered by MPP which have been submitted and settled?
- What has happened to the written reports of the meetings conducted by MPP with the US officials in pursuance of the now-disputed contract?
- Does anyone expect Baby Leys to come to any other conclusion that Harold C. W Brady of Brady and Co.did not have the capacity to enter into contractual obligations with any entity as a representative of the GOJ? Hence, there was no contract between GOJ and MPP. Surprised?
