Clear Management to sell vehicles and dragons in latest IPI auction
The receiver will auction two crystal dragons and 11 luxury vehicles.
Northern Mariana Islands.- The court-appointed receiver Clear Management is to auction two crystal dragons and 11 luxury vehicles from casino operator Imperial Pacific International (IPI). According to Mariana’s Variety, the dragons will be auctioned on August 22. They adorned the Imperial Palace Saipan lobby and include over 2.5 million Swarovski crystals.
Luxury vehicles including Rolls Royce, Cadillac and Toyota models will be auctioned on April 11. The auctions follow judgments in favour of creditors and the CNMI government.
Earlier this week, a group of former IPI workers who sued the casino operator for discrimination filed a motion for a default judgment. Özcan Genç, Hasan Gökçe, and Süleyman Köş, claim through attorney Richard Miller that IPI failed to fulfil promises made in their contracts, including health insurance coverage, Turkish meals, airfare for home visits, paid leave and repatriation costs.
The motion seeks compensation totalling US$1,075,658.23 to address financial losses. A hearing is scheduled for April 25 before chief Judge Ramona V. Manglona.
