Sheldon Marsh Sues for $44.48M Over Alleged False Land Claim That Blocked St. John Solar Project

Sheldon Marsh, part of St. John's Marsh Family currently engaged in a difficult lease dispute with developer Summer's End Group, has filed a federal lawsuit in the District of Connecticut accusing Virgin Islands attorney David A. Bornn and St. John developer Christian Loranger of orchestrating a false claim to Marsh family land on St. John—an action Marsh says clouded title, derailed a planned solar project, and cost millions.

The lawsuit accuses attorney David A. Bornn, developer Christian Loranger, VIElectron, and Marjorie Rawls Roberts, P.C., of fabricating an April 2023 purchase agreement to justify filing a lis pendens, forcing the developer to abandon its solar lease.
