Legal Action Fund Trustees
1. It was reported for information only that, since May, the Trustees reviewed 5 cases and approved filing a brief on one case as follows:

Henley v. Ron McKim Construction.   Buyers (Henleys) entered into a contract with the Costas to buy residential property in April 2006.  The buyers also signed a Buyer Broker agreement which contained a mediation clause.  Escrow closed on May 9, 2006 and in March 2007, the buyers became aware of alleged property defects including paint and efforescence problems in March 2007.  The broker’s counsel wrote a letter suggesting mediation on April 8, 2008.   The buyers, through their counsel, responded May 23, 2008.  The complaint was filed on January 20, 2009 against the construction company only.   An unsuccessful mediation was held on February 19, 2009.  The broker had participated in the mediation but did not sign an agreement tolling the statute of limitations.  The buyers filed a first amended complaint naming the broker on May 8, 2009.  The broker filed motions for summary judgment based on the statute of limitations.  The motion was denied based on the theory that the statute of limitations was extended based on the doctrine of equitable tolling.  The amended complaint had been filed more than two years after the plaintiff became aware of the defect but the trial court held that the 2009 mediation (though unsuccessful) stopped the time from running because mediation was required under the contract.  The matter is on appeal and the trustees authorized a brief supporting the broker’s position that participating in a mediation does not toll the statute of limitations.

DBSI Bankruptcy.  The Trustees are not officially involved in this case but are monitoring it.  Many C.A.R. members were sued for past commissions by a bankruptcy trustee under the theory that the bankrupt company knew they had no assets to pay real estate professionals and therefore all such funds should be returned to the Bankruptcy Trustee.  Approximately 84 members have joined the group to save costs in a joint defense.   On August 3, 2011, the Bankruptcy Trustee filed a Notice of Commencement, signaling that the Trustee is moving forward with the action against the real estate professionals.  All of the defendants in the case have until September 19, 2011 to file an answer or otherwise respond in the case.  The deadline has been extended for members of the group to October 11, 2011.  Rather than file answer to the complaint, various procedural motions either have been filed or will be filed in the next few days.  These may include motions seeking dismissal or the transfer of the case on the basis of lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, failure to adequately plead the claims, and a motion to transfer to another court.    These procedural motions, if successful, will significantly improve the posture of the case for the group.

Legislative
1. That C.A.R. take a “NOT REAL ESTATE RELATED” position on a proposition (Number Pending) on the June 2012 ballot: State Budget. Changes California Budget Process. Limits State Spending. Increases “Rainy Day” Budget Stabilization Fund.

Note: C.A.R. has previously taken the following positions on upcoming 2012 state ballot propositions:
An as yet unnumbered Proposition for the June 2012 ballot entitled Legislative Term Limits Reform Act of 2012. Initiative Constitutional Amendment. “NOT REAL ESTATE RELATED”

An as yet unnumbered Proposition for the June 2012 ballot entitled HOPE 2010: California Cancer Research Act. Initiative Constitutional Amendment.  “NOT REAL ESTATE RELATED”
