LJM Energy Ltd., Reportedly Affiliated With Business Owner Lawrence “Larry” McGean, Repays $7k To Resolve Labour Deficiencies.

By Alric Lindsay

Criminal proceedings against independent electric vehicle supplier LJM Energy Ltd. have been completely brought to an end after the business owner settled thousands of dollars in outstanding wages to a former technician who suffered a severe medical emergency during an employment dispute.

The company faced multi-count charges in the Summary Court today, October 6, 2026, for failing to pay wages, notice pay, and accrued vacation allowances under the Labour Act. Defence attorney Perry informed the court that a total sum of $7,161.59 had been successfully paid back to the complainant, Silvio Mocci. In light of the full financial restitution, Crown Counsel from the Director of Public Prosecutions, Kenneth Ferguson, withdrew all outstanding criminal charges against the business entity.

Department of Labour and Pensions (DLP) records reveal that On October 7, 2025, Silvio Mocci filed a preliminary investigation indicating that he was unfairly dismissed from his post without payment for his
wages, notice, vacation and sick leave.

Reportedly, Mocci was originally hired by LJM Energy in May 2023 as a Manager and Master Technician under a verbal agreement for a monthly salary of CI$7,000. Reportedly, LJM Energy operates out of George Town as an independent automotive service facility specializing in high-voltage diagnostics, battery health solutions, and sales for electric vehicles such as Teslas and Nissan Leafs.

According to DLP investigation files, relations between Mocci and business owner Lawrence “Larry” McGean broke down on August 7, 2025, during a heated verbal confrontation regarding payroll scheduling at the business premises. Following the dispute, Mocci experienced severe chest pains and had to be hospitalized, where doctors diagnosed him with a major panic attack triggered by acute, work-related stress.

Mocci was placed on certified medical leave, but received no compensation from his employer during that time. When he attempted to return to work in October, he was told to stay away until a formal meeting was convened on October 6, 2025. During that meeting, Mocci was allegedly presented with a resignation letter; when he refused to sign it, he was verbally terminated on the spot without notice or a severance package.

The employer initially fought the DLP claims, alleging that Mocci had self-terminated and owed the company money for unresolved personal cash advances. However, the investigation was forwarded to the DPP for criminal prosecution after the company failed to produce any signed loan agreements or employee handbooks to justify the statutory wage deductions.

Now that payment has been made, this fully settles the matter.
