Fine Collection & Enforcement

"If an Owner refuses to pay a valid fine that has been upheld by the Independent Tribunal, the Association retains the authority to enforce payment through civil means. The Association may immediately suspend the Owner's voting rights and privileges to use any Common Area facilities. Furthermore, the Association may pursue a Personal Civil Judgment against the Owner in Small Claims Court or another court of competent jurisdiction. If the Association secures a judgment against the Owner for an unpaid fine, the Owner shall also be held personally liable for all court filing fees, reasonable collection costs, and attorney's fees incurred by the Association in securing the judgment."
