Installed gate that would never function.
I contracted with John Entrekin dba Smoky Mountain Iron Works to install a motorized driveway gate. The gate never functioned. After several months of trying to resolve I told him to "either fix the gate or dig the piece of *** up and give me my money back". He lold me he wasn't coming back to "tell it to the judge". I did. I sued and won the case. He appealed and did not even bother to show up. I won a judgement and he refuses to pay. He told me to "get in line that he was closing the business". I went to a lawyer and found out that he has indeed closed the business and that there are other outstanding suits. i likely will never collect. If this person ever geta a business RUN as fast as you can the other way. He is rude and unresponsive and will not do what he says.
