Intervention for Homestead: What does it mean for us?

April 14, 2023
|

Homestead homeowners are asking what will the intervention mean for us as a community should it prevail?

What we know:

  1. The opt-out letters were not valid, everyone was automatically “in” the class action lawsuit, whether we completed a form or not, it didn’t matter.
  2. This was due to how the lawyers categorized their class action lawsuit.
  3. While the legal battle continues, our COS and storm ponds are in need of repair and maintenance, for which the intervention has asked for an injunction. 
  4. The intervention, if successful, will not stop the lawsuit from continuing on to trial in September, but it will release the class membership from being pulled into the lawsuit without their consent. 
  5. This will reduce the size of the lawyers’ class, from every homeowner in Homestead, to plaintiffs, 2 lawyers, and whoever wishes to remain with them.
    People will be able to choose for themselves.
  6. Intervenors are fighting for Homestead residents’ right to consent, to have our choice respected, not ignored.
