Stalking charges dismissed against Mermaid Beach campaigner Rod Lambert

Gold Coast real estate agent and property developer Rod Lambert has had charges that he stalked Ray White Queensland CEO Peter Camphin dismissed in the Brisbane Magistrates Court this week.

On the advice of his solicitor,  Lambert has agreed to not to have any contact with Peter Camphin for a period of two years.

"In view of the fact that Mr Michael Kollosche no longer works for Ray White, Mr Lambert happily agreed to conform to that request as he now has no reason to contact Mr Camphin now or in the future now that Mr Kollosche has left the employment of Ray White," said Lambert in a statement.

In previous online postings, Lambert made allegations of misconduct against Gold Coast prestige sales agent Michael Kollosche, who was previously contracted to the Ray White Broadbeach office.

Lambert accused Ray White of not taking appropriate action against Kollosche.

A spokesperson for Ray White declined to comment on the ruling and said it was a private matter between Rod Lambert and Peter Camphin.

Peter Camphin declined to comment.

Lambert was charged with stalking Camphin in February this year.

In March a Queensland Supreme Court judge ruled that Lambert must close down a website he ran, which Ray White claims was damaging its brand.

The injunction against Lambert from publishing the website and related material remains in place.

In May 2010 Lambert alleged that wealthy investors were duped into buying multimillion-dollar properties on Mermaid Beach on the Gold Coast as part of an elaborate price-fixing scam.

In January this year the Queensland Office of Fair Trading confirmed to Property Observer that it was continuing to investigate such allegations.
