    If you read the article, there was exactly this sort of clause in the deed, and now the courts are saying “fuck you”

      It’s one Court and unsurprisingly it’s the Court located right there in town. I strongly suspect that the Third Court of Appeals is going to have a different take on this mess.

      At least where I live you can’t wash away a deed restriction like this by transferring the property a couple times.

        It is wild to me that this wasn’t handled elsewhere to begin with. There is no way to at least somewhat guarantee a fair process with this massive potential for conflict of interest.
