Crea J. McMullin and Martha E. McMullin, Petitioners v. John Hauer and Sena Hauer

Summary

The court held that the recorded plat, deeds, and subdivision agreement did not create a common-interest community under CCIOA, even by implication. The instruments neither imposed an obligation on lot owners to pay expenses for common property, attached such an obligation to individual lots, expressly created a homeowners' association, nor included required declaration components. The court therefore reversed the court of appeals and remanded for further proceedings.
