Reggae Singer Mr. Vegas in Child Custody Dispute

Dancehall Reggae singer, Mr. Vegas, had his child custody case postponed once again when the mother of his two-year-old daughter failed to show up in court for the third time. The case is being heard at the Bronx County Family Court in New York and has been continued until September 17. An arrest warrant was issued for missing mother, Shellian McBayne, by New York law enforcement last month and remains in effect.

Mr. Vegas says the next court appearance will be the one-year mark since he last laid eyes on his daughter. He told IRIE FM on Wednesday that not being able to see his daughter has weighed heavily on his mind.

“That’s gonna be like one year with me not seeing my daughter” he said. “That somewhat takes a toll and will take a toll on any responsible father who wants to know the whereabouts of his children. It’s just one of those situations where you try to handle it the best way, but one year without seeing your child is totally ridiculous.”

His child custody case was started after an October 2012 incident in which Shellian was caught having sex with another man in Mr. Vegas’s Florida home. She was allegedly intimate with the other man in the presence of the two-year-old daughter she has with Mr. Vegas.

I will be recommending friends, family, and associates to Jones Law.

“When I needed legal assistance I emailed roughly a dozen law firms that came up in a Google search. Jones Law was the only firm that got back to me with a personalized message about my particular situation. When I arrived for my appointment I was greeted by Emily Sturgill to go over my case. Emily was awesome. She walked through my information & was very empathetic to my situation. I later met with David Collins to address my issue. David was great & completely understood what I wanted & gave me a very quick resolution. I will be recommending friends, family, and associates to Jones Law.”

We can now open up another chapter of our lives.

“I went to Jones Law Firm, PC , needing help with my children’s custody case. April took my case, even though it was very short notice before the court date. Immediately April and all her staff members started gathering all the details and information from me to prepare for court. Daily April and/or her staff members were in contact with me for any updates on what was going on. I now have full custody of my two beautiful children. My family and I would like to say “Thank you so much” to everyone at the Jones Law Firm. We can now open up another chapter of our lives.”

“Having had the pleasure and experience of having Ms. April Jones of Jones Law Firm, PC represent me in my recent divorce, I must say how truly BLESSED I was.

Ms. Jones’ best quality as an attorney is her ability to take charge.

“Ms. Jones was my attorney in 2002. She is sharp, quick and strong and we won my case decisively. I am currently having Ms. Jones represent me again on another issue in 2010-2011. Based on my observation, Ms. Jones is sharper and stronger and has attained greater knowledge and insight. I have noticed that Ms. Jones desires to win each case with integrity. She cares about her client’s welfare at all times. Ms. Jones’ best quality as an attorney is her ability to take charge. I have recommended Ms. Jones to my friends and co-workers.”

April settled my case literally out in the courthouse hallway.

“April settled my case literally out in the courthouse hallway.I had a landlord that failed to make promised repairs to my apartment. I was paying for a two bedroom,two bathroom place but only one bathroom worked. He said he would repair it when I moved in but 7 months went by and he was still making excuses. He lived in hawaii, the apartment was in california and he used that as his excuse. I decided to stop paying him until he fixed the bathroom I had BEEN paying for. After 3 months of that he arrived at my apartment and decided to take me to court rather than fix the bathroom and collect back rent which I had been holding onto. April negotiated a deal before we went into court for an immediate cash payment for 1 month and I could take a week to move out. My landlord accepted and a possible unlawful detainer ruling was avoided. I was able to use the 2 months rent I still had to find another apartment which would have been much harder to do with a unlawful detainer on my record.”
