Santo Domingo.<\/strong> A judge ordered the seizure of movable and immovable assets belonging to businessman Carlos Matamoros Bregnil and the companies Dynex Energy Group and Dynex Energy RD, as part of a judicial process related to a claim for alleged non-payment stemming from the Puerto Viejo energy project, Playa Los Negros, in Azua.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a statement from the plaintiff, the decision was adopted following a request filed by lawyers Lora Castillo and Jorge G. Lora Olivares, who represent the firm Transcaribbean Energy Partners & Consulting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the document, the controversy originated after 18 transfers were made from Karpowership to Dynex between March and April 2025, totaling RD$15,098,459.04 and US$3,098,396.71<\/strong>. The plaintiff maintains that 55%<\/strong> of those funds belonged to them due to their participation in the project, but claims they never received the agreed-upon payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The legal representatives indicated that attempts to resolve the conflict out of court were unsuccessful, so they decided to go to court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Likewise, they pointed out that for more than six years Transcaribbean Energy Partners & Consulting carried out technical studies, institutional efforts, and consulting work to promote the development of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The barges are off the coast of Azua, generating power and collecting payment every month. Our client invested six years of work and his own resources to make that project a reality, and what he received was silence. They collected payment and did not pay what was agreed upon,” stated the plaintiff’s lawyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement explains that the authorized garnishment measures cover present and future assets derived from the project’s operation, up to an amount of US$5 million<\/strong>, as well as the withholding of sums owed to the defendant by third parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, the judge rejected the request for a travel ban against Carlos Matamoros Bregnil, considering that the defendant’s status as a foreigner does not, in itself, constitute a presumption of flight and that the requesting party did not demonstrate sufficient elements to justify that coercive measure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The decision also contemplates measures of garnishment, conservatory attachment, and provisional judicial mortgage on the defendant’s assets, according to the statement from the plaintiff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
