Gumpel v. Copperleaf Homeowners Ass’n, Inc.
Annotate this CaseIn this dispute between two neighboring Park County communities - the China Wall Tract and the Copperleaf Subdivision - the district court interpreted the China Wall Tract’s restrictive covenants in a manner that will allow Copperleaf property owners access to and through certain areas in the China Wall Tract. The Gumpel Family Trust, which owned property in the China Wall Tract, appealed. The Supreme Court affirmed, as modified, holding (1) the district court did not err in interpreting the covenants; but (2) the court’s holding is modified to clarify that an “invitee” and an “owner” do not share equivalent rights under the covenants.
