Question

A subdivision has a homeowner association rule that states there can be no above ground pools in the subdivision. The Curtis family has an above ground pool in their backyard. Four years later, the new association president threatens to take the family to court for violating the subdivision regulations. Why doesn't the new president have a case?

Answer 1

Answer:

statute of limitations                            

Explanation:

In simple words, A statue of limitations refers to the legislation enacted by a governing body to specify the permissible period following an incident wherein legal procedures can begin.

After the duration stated under a limitations statute expires, a lawsuit can no more be pursued or, if lodged, can be rejected if the argument against the lawsuit occurs that the petition is duration-barred as being brought beyond the legislative expiration date. If in a civil proceeding a statute of limitations passes, the judiciary have no authority any more.
