flag China Construction America settles with Sarkis Izmirlian, securing resort ownership and avoiding liquidation after a decade-long dispute.

flag China Construction America has reached a settlement with former Baha Mar developer Sarkis Izmirlian, resolving a decade-long legal battle over the resort project’s delays and cost overruns. flag The agreement, pending approval by a New Jersey federal bankruptcy court, allows CCA to retain ownership of the British Colonial and Margaritaville Beach Resort in Nassau, avoiding potential liquidation. flag Under the terms, Izmirlian’s company drops all claims without admission of liability, and CCA will make a cash payment—slightly less than the $1.8 billion judgment with interest—within 30 days of approval. flag The settlement ends a high-stakes dispute that had threatened Bahamian jobs and operations, with both parties calling it a resolution that supports economic stability and future development.
