Hoteliers in the eastern region are urging the judicial authorities to take note of the irregular embargos that have affected the area in the past 15 weeks. The Hotels and Tourism Projects Association of the East said that in the past three months, seven of their members have been victims of irregular asset seizures. The hoteliers warn that this is a major threat to investment. They called on the Prosecutor General, the Supreme Court of Justice and the Police to investigate and warned that there may be consequences for those causing what they call an epidemic of assault-embargos affecting hotel investors. The association says this is a plague that is corroding the image of the authorities and Dominican justice, the continued execution of embargos against hotels, in violation of legal principles, and especially with false notifications. Hotels affected in 2011 have been Bahia Principe, IFA, Palladium, Occidental, NH, Moon Palace (Hard Rock Cafe) and Nouvelle Frontiere.

The association calls on the authorities to investigate a lawyer identified as Luis Emilio Frias Tiburcio whose name appears in most of the cases. "These are fake performances, that is, notifications of judicial decisions made by sheriffs who do not deliver the notification of the judicial sentence and that invent names of people to whom they deliver the notification to prevent those who will be affected from finding out about the process."
