Lisa Barlow, a cast member from “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City,” is currently embroiled in a legal battle concerning allegedly unpaid loans amounting to over $410,000, connected to her Vida Tequila business.
A firm known as S Note Capital has launched a legal challenge against both Lisa and her spouse, John Barlow. They are accused of not repaying multiple loans which total $410,625. These funds were purportedly borrowed in 2019 and 2020 to support the operations of their tequila company.
The legal claim points out that the Barlows haven’t made any payments on these loans since they were due, which was in April 2021. Consequently, S Note Capital is seeking the return of the full outstanding amount along with accrued interest and coverage for legal expenses.
Lisa Barlow, who kickstarted Vida Tequila with her husband in 2007, has been a notable figure on RHOSLC since its debut on Bravo in late 2020. Her involvement in the tequila brand is often highlighted on the show, where she discusses her enthusiasm and vision for its expansion.
The ongoing lawsuit’s implications for Barlow’s continued participation in the television show and the operations of Vida Tequila remain uncertain. Barlow has yet to make a public statement regarding the matter.
S Note Capital, based in New York, specializes in financing solutions for small to mid-sized enterprises. The company has maintained silence over the specific details of the allegations against the Barlows.
Previously in 2018, Lisa Barlow faced legal issues when a former business partner took legal action against her for alleged breach of contract and fraud concerning Vida Tequila. Accusations were made that Barlow misrepresented the financial state of the company and did not distribute the profits fairly. The case was eventually settled privately for an amount that was not disclosed.
As the legal proceedings against Lisa Barlow and her husband progress, it will be important to monitor how this situation affects their personal and business endeavors. In the meantime, she continues her role on RHOSLC and remains active in promoting Vida Tequila through various social media channels.
