Travis County, Texas

98th Judicial District Court

March 13, 2012

Gary Harger, the Presiding Judge of the 98th Judicial District Court,  granted homeowner Marvin William Hays, Jr. its order granting Defendant’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment in part. The Court found that the restrictive covenants do not place a time limitation on rentals or otherwise ban rentals that satisfy the single-family purpose requirement of the restrictive covenants. The Briarcliff Property Owners Association, Inc. had banned short-term rentals.  Mr. Hay’s attorney, J. Patrick Sutton, announced their success in getting that ban overturned.
