A rejected request for a commercial construction loan is at the center of a dispute between a New York real estate development firm and Bethpage Federal Credit Union.
Liberty Meadows of Hauppauge, N.Y., and its managing members, Demetrius A. Tsunis and Enrico Scarda, filed a suit May 2 in the New York Supreme Court in Suffolk County, alleging breach of contract, fraud and negligent misrepresentation regarding a rejected loan from Bethpage to finance townhouse condominiums for senior citizens.
