425th Judicial District Court, Williamson County, Texas · Cause No. 26-2738-C425

Steven P. Burns and Linda Burns v. Sunset Ridge at Tucker Knob Homeowners Association, et al.

Pending

Lot owners in a four-lot Williamson County subdivision sued their homeowners association and the owners of the other three lots after the architectural control committee denied a complete application for a workshop without considering the plans, and offered to reconsider only if the owners agreed not to contact law enforcement. The petition seeks to enforce the Declaration, a declaratory judgment, and injunctions requiring the committee to decide the application on the Declaration's own criteria and barring a legal-fee assessment against the owners' lot.

Role. Counsel for plaintiffs Steven P. Burns and Linda Burns.

Status. Pending. Nothing in this case has been decided, and no result is described or implied here.

Step 3 — how to reach you

Read by John P. Henry. An AI service under a commercial agreement extracts and summarizes submissions so they can be reviewed the same day. It does not train on what is sent, and the provider deletes inputs and outputs within thirty days. Nothing it generates is sent to you — every reply you get is written by a lawyer. If you are opposing counsel, or a party represented by counsel, do not use this form.
