A lawsuit against missing banker David Widlak alleging he mismanaged an elderly Windsor woman's estate has no bearing on the police investigation into his disappearance, Macomb County Sheriff Mark Hackel said.
"Any connection with someone who wanted to harm David based upon the lawsuit has not been brought to our attention, nor do we believe any reason for his disappearance is connected to it," Hackel said.
The suit against Widlak was filed in Macomb County Circuit Court last October on behalf of Elizabeth Mary Cerget, 69, who died in 2008. Her daughter and legal representative, Jennifer Rubli of Windsor, filed the suit.
The lawyer representing Cerget's estate also said today that he doesn't think the case has anything to do with Widlak's disappearance.
"If we win everything, he may be liable for $200,000," said Troy-based attorney Andrew Mayoras. "That's not enough to disappear over."
Because Widlak is missing, the lawsuit is up in the air, the attorney says. "I don't know what's going to end up happening at this point," Mayoras said.
Hackel said the department's detectives were aware of the suit, checked into and determined that it wasn't connected to Widlak's disappearance.
