Park Wilshire HOA v. Dosso
Appellant Ahmed L. Dosso is the owner of a unit, apparently a condominium, in a building on Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles. Respondent Park Wilshire Homeowners Association (HOA) is a homeowners association established by covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&R’s) governing the property. The HOA is authorized to, and has, imposed assessments on Dosso as a unit owner. Pursuant to the CC&R’s, failure to pay assessments when due may lead to enforcement proceedings, as it did in this case. Dosso was substantially late in paying assessments. The HOA sued him to enforce the secured lien it held under the CC&R’s with respect to these late payments. Dosso answered the complaint and filed a cross-complaint in which he sought damages for breach of contract, various torts, and other relief.
After settlement efforts failed, the case was tried to the court. The court found in favor of the HOA and against Dosso.[1] Dosso filed a timely appeal.
