Third-Party Defendant 68th JUDICIAL DISTRICT
Motion to Appoint Receiver for Valle? View Park Estates Homeowners
Association INC.
TO THE HONORABLE JUDGE OF SAID COURT:
Plaintiff Charles Zubarik, respectfully requests that the Court appoint
a Receiver for Valley View Parks Estates HOA because the current
Board of Directors is mostly the Defendants in the case. The Board of
Directors do not do What is best for the HOA, but for themselves.
Specifically rather than obey the Declaration and the Court’s finding
that the Defendants violated the Declaration. Instead of doing what was
Motion to Appoint Receiver1 of 13
best for the HOA, the Board of Directors sued the HOA.
A. Three fraudulent votes/elections in a row.
I. March 23, 2021 vote to Amend Declaration to Grandfather
Defendants/Board member fences in easements was Noticed
to members Via mail/email on March 4th with language of
proposed Amendment. This Notice contained a General
Proxy (forbidden by VVPE By Laws) and an Absentee Ballot
that could be voted.
a. In person at time & place of meeting, or
b. By fax, email, or USPS Via Associa management Co.
Vote results announced by Associa as 65 FOR & 7 Against.
As the previous HOA 2016 vote on allowing these same
cedar plank perimeter privacy fences & a recent Board
survey on issue in 2019 both resulted in less than 50% of
members wanting these fences to be installed,
The vote was challenged in a recount done by Judge Harlan
Martin. Judge Martin focused on the obvious wrong usage of
“General” proxies to net the 2/3rd membership required for
approval of Declaration Amendments & ruled election failed
to legally net the required 2/3rd vote.
Judge Martin was never made aware that the Absentee
Ballots & sign-in sheets showedi
a. Two homes voting twice.
One Board member who admitted in his deposition to not being a
property owner/member of HOA illegally voted using another person’s
address. See Carey Dunn deposition June 16, 2021 the following
pages:
P-19 Line 4 to 10 Carey Dunn does not own 13207 Cedar Lane Cedar

owner.

20 Lines 1'25 All show Mr. Dunn was not eligible to vote
Exhibit 16 Meeting Ballot Shows he illegally voted.
Motion to Appoint Receiver2 of 13
90+% of Absentee Ballots voted/signed four weeks to a few
days in advance of Notice date when Amendment
language first published. Pressure & intimidation tactics
were reported to have been used by the Board to harvest
these Very Early Absentee Ballots which were then NOT
delivered “in person at the time & place of the meeting” as
shown on Video of meeting.
II. Second election to change Declaration language was noticed
on June 9, 2021 and held on July lst, 2021. It resulted in an
illegally skewed announced result of 67 members voting
FOR the Amendment & 7 members voting AGAINST. As
the same Fraud was believed to have been committed in this
election/vote as the March 23 vote, Mr. Zubarik filed & paid
for another recount.
This time the HOA attorney C. Meyers selected a retired
Collin Co. judge to do the recount & Mr. Zubarik & his
lawyer were denied access/communication with him to
present the election fraud evidence (see enclosed email
G)0189 )from Terry Lynne on May 27, 2021which states the
Board will not Notice/set vote meeting until they have 5O
signed FOR votes).
The Recorded Video of this meeting proves beyond any
Reasonable doubt that once again 90+% of the Absentee
Ballots were not delivered as required per the Ballet delivery
instructions “in person at the time & place of meeting.” If
these fraudulent Absentee Ballots were correctly thrown out,
the For votes would not number more than 18 to 20 which is
nowhere near the 58 votes (2/3rd) required to approve the
Amendment. No non-fraudulent vote has ever occurred to
change the Declaration & allow these fences to be legal.
III. An HOA annual meeting was held Nov. 3, 2021 to elect 3
new Board Members. Two of the three reportedly elected
(Samantha Lynne — non-member daughter of Terry Lynne &
Eric Sorensen fence Defendant) were we believe elected
——
fraudulently by the same voting irregularities that occurred
in the March 23 & July lst election/votes. We have no
Motion to Appoint Receiver3 of 13
present access to the ballots cast to check when they were
voted (i.e., prior to Notice date),
B. The Board’s Gross wasting of HOA’S money to primarily defend
the HOA against the law suit the 5 Defendants (have held
majority of Board seats last three years) filed against the HOA on
which Board they simultaneously serve is a breach of fiduciary
duty. The Defendants caused the HOA to spend $39,100 in 2020
and another $39,130 so far in 2021 on legal payments to Mr.
Meyers. This $7 3,230 is about 73% of the VVPE HOA’s annual
budget which means other HOA needs are being disregarded to
pay these legal fees.
C. The fence erecting defendants on the Board and the newly elected
Board member Samantha Lynne have already refused to address
many ongoing CC&R Violations (forbidden metal seam roof
installation, rock landscaping, numerous forbidden yard signs,
commercial vehicles parked overnight, etc.) that they and their
friends are committing. Board Member/Defendant Smelser won’t
address the Abbott’s new metal seam roof reportable because the
Abbott’s are financing the purchase of his house. Rock
landscaping just installed in beds of Goodsell (chairwoman of
ACLC that approved fences in easement) house were allowed to go
in just before the Goodsell’s recently sold & moved (Why). Illegal
Yard signs in yards of Sorensen, Smelser & Lynne are among
several dozen degrading the esthetics of the HOA. Samantha
Lynne drives & parks a commercially painted truck, and has
publically refused to park same in their garage claiming the
CC&Rs don’t apply to her since City has no problem with What
she does.
We have lost the rule of law in the VVPE HOA & have no remedy to
right this ship without a neutral Receiver. Judge Montgomery saw the
need & indicated she was preparing to appoint some lady named Sherri
Adney to that position just before the original Motion for Receivership
legal action was moved to your honor’s Court.
The Mediation failed/deadlocked because the other side was unwilling
Motion to Appoint Receiver4 of 13
to turn control of the HOA over to a more neutral homogeneous Board.
We want our HOA to return to following our governing documents &
the rule of Law; the Defendants in power want to continue With a
dictatorship that allow them to do whatever they want & to punish
those who challenge their illegality. A Court appointed 3rd party
Receiver appears the sole means remaining to achieve this. With a
Receiver running the HOA for 2 or 3 years, the door would be open for
both sides to resolve all other issues in this litigation, including money.
