[George R. Truitt]

I have. We convinced the court to stay the action until turnover.  Absent that, you could try your luck with developer indemnity against future association claim, but ....

Hi all,  Long time reader –first time writer.

Has anyone had occasion to deal with a situation where a developer (pre-turnover) files a construction defect action against GC and subs.  The defendants want to resolve the litigation but since there has been no turnover the developer arguably cannot bind the Association.  In fact, the Association is not even a party.  The concern is that the developer cannot release the Association and therefore can take the money and potentially do nothing (or something less then actually required to cure the alleged defects).  The developer is supposedly close to turnover but I suspect that they want the settlement before turnover so that they can have control of the money.   Has anyone had the pleasure of this type of situation?

Thank you!
