Alabama Ct Says HOA Action to Enforce Restrictive Covenant is Barred by 6 Yr. Statute of Limitations

Alabama Appellate Court decision (September 16, 2016).

In this case, in 2007, a homeowner purchased a property in a development that was subject to restrictive covenants created by the original developer of the subdivision. Shortly after purchasing the property, the homeowner removed a wall that enclosed the pool area on the property and made some other improvements without the approval of the governing association’s Architectural Review Committee in violation of the restrictive covenants that the homeowner was required to comply with.
