A Waikato tradesman accused of duping people of money before doing most of the work expected of him, plans to fight the charges he's facing.
Concrete contractor Jason Mark Lambert reappeared in the Hamilton District Court this afternoon where he pleaded not guilty to 31 charges of obtaining by deception and three charges of speaking threateningly.
The charges relate to alleged offending between October 2018 and May 2021 and involve 29 complainants and about $60,000.
