Lakemoor Community Club, Inc. v. Swanson

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• declining to address whether a Washington statute governing private ways of necessity permits condemnation of the “incorporeal covenant rights” of other landowners
• referring to integral unit of residences with a single entrance and exit precluding any through traffic to adjacent areas as a self-contained residential community
• “[t]o permit [the developer] to exercise the consent provision ... is to elevate defendants’ selfish wishes over the justifiable interests and expectations of the individual lot owner. Such a result would be both unreasonable and unconscionable.”
