Court prevents Plenty of Fish scammer from wriggling off the hook in $100k judgment
OTTAWA A judge has denounced the behaviour of an Ottawa contractor who bilked a former girlfriend and business partner as fraudulent, dishonest, shameful and hurtful. Ontario Superior Court Judge Peter Annis made the comments in granting a motion that ensures a $100,000 civil judgment registered against Kevin Bishop will survive any
future bankruptcy. Annis said he issued the order in light of threats by Bishop to declare bankruptcy if Ottawas Julie MacArthur ever tried to collect on the judgment. Bishop did not appear in court to defend the action. This
is at least some accountability, said MacArthur, 45, a single mother who lost the bulk of her life savings due to her involvement with Bishop. I have a huge, long road ahead of me; every day I wake up, theres some new financial difficulty that I face because of what happened.
