Creywood Crossing Owners Association, Inc. v. Barbara Holleman

Knoxville, Tennessee condominium real estate law lawyers represented condo association and owner.

Greywood Crossing Owners Association, Inc. ("Greywood") commenced this action to enforce the development's Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions ("the Declaration") against one of its homeowners, Barbara Holleman, who had failed to pay assessments for more than three years. Specifically, the complaint asserted claims against Ms. Holleman on a sworn account to collect unpaid assessments plus attorney's fees and costs of collection as well "an Order of Sale of the Property to satisfy [Greywood's] assessment lien and judgment." Ms. Holleman, acting pro se in the trial court, filed an answer in which she denied the debt. Upon Greywood's motion for partial summary judgment, the trial court found that Ms. Holleman owed the assessments, awarded fees and costs to Greywood, and ordered Ms. Holleman to list her property for sale to satisfy the debt. When Ms. Holleman failed to list her property for sale as ordered by the trial court, Greywood filed a Rule 70 motion for specific performance, which the court granted, directing the clerk and master to sell Ms. Holleman's property. This appeal followed. We affirm the trial court in all respects.
