James Sinclair Thomson, 35, owner of Perth House Relocators, has been arrested for breaching civil court orders amid an escalating dispute involving alleged unpaid debts to multiple clients [1]. Consumer protection authorities have received nine separate complaints against Thomson, with customers claiming he received over one million Australian dollars but failed to deliver promised house relocations or complete contracted work [1].
Among the complainants is Josh Aylett, who alleges Thomson owes him 120,000 Australian dollars for an undelivered house relocation [1]. Thomson faces multiple criminal charges including dangerous driving, a T-bone collision, and pepper spray assault [1]. He has also been charged with two counts of breaching bail conditions by failing without reasonable excuse to comply with his bail undertakings [1]. Following a hearing at Perth Local Court on Monday, Thomson was granted bail with a personal recognizance of 100,000 Australian dollars and no additional bail conditions [1].
The dispute extends beyond individual clients. Jurien Bay Hotel has initiated legal action against Thomson, claiming he owes more than 2,500 Australian dollars in unpaid bills [1]. Consumer Protection Commissioner Trish Blake has issued a public warning to the community to exercise caution regarding Thomson and all business names associated with him [1].
