BBB reports on known government actions involving business' marketplace conduct. The following describes a pending government action that has been formally brought by a government agency but has not yet been resolved. We are providing a summary of the government's allegations, which have not yet been proven.
On August 19, 2021, the Michigan Attorney General filed felony charges in Marquette County 96th District Court. Charges filed allege the business owner, Klint Miller, violated State law and he was arraigned on the following charges:
- seven counts of larceny by conversion over $20,000, punishable by up to ten years in prison and/or $15,000 fine
- seven counts of fraudulent use of contractor funds punishable by up to three years in prison
- one count of conducting a criminal enterprise, a twenty year felony with a maximum fine up to $100,000
In January 2020, the Marquette County Sheriff's Office initiated an investigation after clients received an email from Miller indicating he was closing the company. Some clients were left with unfinished home construction projects that had been paid for in advance.
To date, nine projects were identified in Marquette County with an estimated total loss of $978,000. Three additional unfinished projects were identified in Alger and Delta Counties, where Miller faces similar charges. The Michigan State Police and Escanaba Public Safety are handling investigations outside of Marquette County.
Anyone with information regarding the investigation is encouraged to contact Marquette County Sheriff's Office Detective/Lieutenant Lowell Larson at 906-225-8470 or email llarson@mqtco.org.
