Sun Kyung Ahn v. Merrifield Town Center Ltd. Partnership

How courts have described this case

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

• ILSA’s disclosure provisions “reflect Congress’s recognition that the need for buyer protection is criti cal prior to the time the buyer makes the decision to sign and incur obligations ____”
• “To confer on sellers the power to extend the two-year period by delaying ‘ratification’ — perhaps indefinitely — would allow sellers to engage in an end-run around ILSFDA’s protections, a result plainly contrary to Congress’s carefully crafted scheme to protect property purchasers”
• “[T]he sales contracts here in issue do not merit exemption from [ILSA] because the promise to build within two years is specified to run from the date the seller chooses to ratify the contract, rather than the date the buyer signs and incurs obligations.”
