Florida authorities have charged a contractor with underreporting payroll and avoiding more than $1 million in workers’ compensation insurance premiums.
Jacques G. Denomme, of Port St. Lucie, was arrested in Martin County and released on bond earlier this month, after investigators with the state Department of Financial Services found a two-year effort to avoid higher premiums.
Denomme allegedly used two money service businesses to conceal his payroll, DFS said in a statement this week. An arrest warrant was not available in the Martin County online court file.
Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation records show no contractor’s license information for Denomme, suggesting he had been working as an unlicensed contractor. The Florida Office of Judges of Compensation Claims shows no cases, or disputed workers’ comp claims, against an employer with the name Denomme.
A Martin County judge has temporarily appointed a public defender for Denomme.
