Because the community association industry in California is
relatively young and unsettled, and the Davis-Stirling Act is not always
clear, there has been a great deal of litigation over the respective
rights and responsibilities of associations and members.
As a result, courts regularly make important rulings that clarify ambiguities in
the law. Most cases are decided in
the Court of Appeals but a number of them have made it to California's
Supreme Court.
The index on the left is a list of some of the more significant cases*
that impact community associations in California. For a list of new statutes and case law by year, see new laws.
