___The continuation of this post is an email to MOA Members concerning the dismissal of the Nordeen v MOA Lawsuit. Included is a discussion of the rule of law and democratic issues involved with governance of owners associations.

___The court order not only dismissed the lawsuit, but also created the possibility of significant personal liability if I proceeded with an appeal. The Opinion and Order creates a number of claims of reversible error including a major one of using an incorrect Standard of Review upon which the Opinion and Order is based. Had I won the lottery in August, I would have appealed the Court's decision in a heartbeat.

___Your comments are invited and are welcome. Thanks. I am available for discussion and to answer any questions.
