Indiana Ct Issues Injunction Directing Homeowner to Remove Wood Pallets in Backyard & Pay Atty Fees

Indiana Appellate Court decision (January 27, 2015).

A homeowner refused to remove wooden pallets that were propped up against a tree in his backyard as directed by the HOA’s property manager who informed the homeowner that, because the pallets were visible from the road and /or the neighbor’s driveway, they were in violation of the HOA’s CC&Rs Declaration.  The HOA filed an action for an injunction compelling the homeowner to remove the pallets which was granted by the trial court which ordered the homeowner to immediately remove the wooden pallets and any and all other refuse and rubbish from his property. The court also awarded the HOA costs and attorney fees.
