Debra Morgan v. Erik S. Townsend

Summary

The court held that Townsend's exclusive and frequent short-term rentals constituted operation of a business in violation of the deed restriction prohibiting trade or business on the property. It affirmed the declaratory judgment, but vacated the injunction because it did not specify what rental practices were prohibited or permitted, and remanded for a more precise injunction. The court did not find a violation of the covenant's one-family provision on the undisputed record.
