Boris Peyzner Buying Auction House With An Illegal Apartment
6 March 2019 | 1 reply
While this last part does not directly apply to me it seems that an argument can be made that the law clearly does not seek to punish the innocent party but only the one that seeks to benefit by renting an "illegal" apartment.Does anyone have direct experience and/or knowledge re: this issue.

Sean Cook Parking violation interference parking enforcement
13 June 2017 | 1 reply
I then made a motion to have them remove the documented information that we had "interfered with parking enforcement" considering its not a real policy and that it is unlawful to document such accusations and opinions without facts dialogue corroboration and it seems to me they are building a caee against me that they can later use to target or retalliate if they werent doing so already.... it is not in any of the by laws of the cc&r or parking policies..They denied my request to erase the false accusation of interference and assured me the only person to see that record was the secretarys file cabinet..which i called BS because clearly the last parking vioaltion notice i had received the volunteer parking enforecement had hand written down on the notice that my fiance had interfered with the towing of a neighbors car.. at this point i feel powerless i feel i am getting targetted and retalliated against. which by the way is against the law.. ive saved every document letter and issuance they have sent me. so hopefully it doesnt persist...i feel we need a set of checks and balances cause in my opinion this is starting to clearly look like the HOA is overstepping there powers and not lawfully following their fiduciary duties...
Jerilin Buzzetta Unauthorized occupants -- vandalism and trespassing? Lockout?
14 June 2017 | 10 replies
My understanding is that if any one of them has a key, the police will consider them lawful occupants and an eviction will have to occur.You didn't say what the situation was as far as if there is or was a lease in place for some tenant, even if that tenant left.My main concern is that my understanding is that the courts do not like "self help evictions" - where the owner does something like changing the locks, removing doors, shutting off utilities etc. on a tenant/lawful occupant, and judges can punish owners severely for doing that.Again, you need to get legal advice, based on what you've said this is not a situation where you (or the property manager) should be running over and changing locks or boarding up anything.
