Tim Norton along with co-counsel Bill Robitzek successfully overturned the development approval for a 60 unit hotel development project on Great Diamond Island in Maine’s Casco Bay. After two years of litigation and two separate trials in the case of Friends of Great Diamond Island, LLC v. The Inn at Diamond Cove, LLC, attorneys Norton and Robitzek obtained a judgment from the Maine Superior Court overturning the amendments of the Association documents which would have allowed the project to proceed. The Court agreed with the Plaintiff’s contention that the voting procedures for the Amendment were fatally flawed, concluding that these defects were not “technical shortcomings” but rather were “substantive” and that the Court’s intervention was necessary to provide recourse to “members of the association who are aggrieved by the associations breach of its agreements with its members”.
