WEATHER ALERTTags:&nbsp;Sign up for our NewslettersTags:&nbsp;SAN ANTONIO – Prominent San Antonio attorney Martin Phipps was arrested Monday after investigators said he harassed a woman to the point that she fled to Mexico in fear for her life.Phipps was taken into custody on a misdemeanor warrant for telephone harassment, according to charging documents obtained by the KSAT 12 Defenders.The victim said she fled to Mexico a day after Christmas after Phipps confronted her “in an aggressive and agitated state,” the warrant states.The woman believed Phipps was under the influence of drugs at the time of the incident, according to SAPD.After the woman left, Phipps sent her approximately 40 electronic messages over the next two days to “demean, harass, alarm and torment” her, according to the warrant.The woman returned to the United States last month and filed for annulment of her marriage to Phipps, the warrant states.Phipps’ arrest is the latest gaffe for the attorney leading Bexar County’s opioid litigation.His law partner, T.J. Mayes, resigned earlier this year as part of a mass exodus from the firm Phipps Mayes.I resigned from the Phipps firm on 1/11 after I became convinced without a shred of doubt that Martin Phipps is a crook and a serial abuser of women. I turned over appropriate documents to the relevant regulatory agencies.— T.J. Mayes (@tj_mayes_)Phipps is also the subject of a pending complaint filed with the Texas State Bar, according to records reviewed in recent weeks by the Defenders.Late last year, a bank repossessed Phipps’ private jet and sold it at auction for $2.8 million, .A lawsuit filed in Tarrant County late last month states that Phipps’ firm owes an Arlington-area marketing company more than $344,000 for unpaid invoices.A Bexar County spokeswoman declined to comment last week on the issues surrounding Phipps’ law firm.Copyright 2021 by KSAT - All rights reserved.About the Author:
