Social media personality Mikhail Rodrigues, popularly known as “Guyanese Critic,” has had contempt proceedings brought against him for failing to pay some four million dollars in rent owed to his previous landlord.
At a hearing before High Court Judge Gino Persaud yesterday morning, Rodrigues, through his attorney, sought and was granted time during which he has indicated his intention to settle.
The landlord had filed a summons asking that Rodrigues be jailed for contempt.
According to court documents seen by this newspaper, back in 2018, judgment had been entered against Rodrigues, whom a Court had found to be owing his landlord rent in the sum of $4,000,000 for the period September 2015 to April 2017.
At the time, Justice Diana Insanally who presided over the matter, had also ordered Rodrigues to pay court costs in the sum of $50,000
