Oldie?
Do you make the laws or follow them? Can you adjust the laws as you see fit?
is the penalty for stealing a pack of gum a year in jail in your city?

These people agreed to follow them
They have had 5 years to move someplace else. As I said in my original post give them an extension but this trotting out of an innocent child to tug heartstrings so they can continue to break the rules they signed is sick.

Since they have violated the HOA rules for 5 years I am thinking compassion has been shown.
Give them another 6-9 months, whatever the people in the HOA decide and I bet they won’t have to drag the woman ( who has been dragging her feet for 5 years)out of there.

Does compassion trump rules everyone agreed to and voluntarily signed?
Does compassion trump the law?

will you please step into the real world? the HOA could go to any house in this development and find numerous violations.

yeah, they have violated this rule for 5 years. have you considered that perhaps NO ONE complained for the first 4 and a half years?

and yes, sometimes compassion does trump the law. i have done it personally. i have let more people go than i have arrested.

when you get pulled over by a cop for a moving violation do you insist on a ticket? if a cop doesn't stop you, do you find one and insist he issue you a ticket because you were just speeding? you must because rules are rules!
