Homestead Position on the Summary Judgment-
On 2/1/21, Judge Robert Olson ruled on the 1/22/21 hearing between plaintiff attorneys Andersson and Davis, 18 Paradise’s (Mr. Chen) attorney Ross, and MJ’s attorney Mr. Buri.
Mr. Andersson and Davis requested Judge Olson:
- To deny a protective order and seal that was requested by Homestead’s owner, 18 Paradise, to protect its confidential information and tax returns from the general public.
- To grant summary judgement due to amendments 6 and 7 being in violation of ordinances and removing them from CC&Rs.
Both requests by Mr. Andersson and Davis were denied by the judge and the plaintiffs will now need to go to trial, a very costly, lengthy process.
Update as of February 2, 2021
Below is the partial summary judgement that was just sent out Monday February 1st. The plaintiffs partial summary judgement was denied. There will be a trial moving forward.
