A judgment entered by Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas Judge Gary S. Glazer in 315 Arch St. Condominium Association v. 315 Arch St. Realty 2005 LP, 2014 Phila. Ct. Com. Pl. LEXIS 193 (April 1, 2014), in favor of a condominium association and against a unit owner reminded me of the enormous power condominium associations across the state possess in collecting condominium assessments against their unit owners.
In 315 Arch St. Realty, Glazer found that a condominium association was entitled to judgment of approximately $100,000 against its developer, who still owned several units in the building, as a result of the developer’s failure to pay condominium assessments due to the condominium association. What is most telling about the nature of the judgment is that the judgment included the imposition of almost $30,000 in legal fees and costs the condominium association incurred as a result of litigating the dispute with its unit owner.
