Highlands West, L.L.C. v. Fairweather Investments, LLC
Defendant acquired approximately 1,435 acres of land known as the Burruss Land Tract in Matoaca District, and entered into a contract with plaintiff dated Jan. 16, 2004, wherein plaintiff was to acquire a 30 percent interest as a tenant in common with defendant, which would then own a 70 percent share. The purchase price to be paid by plaintiff was $1,275,000. Plaintiff says defendant failed to fulfill its financial obligations, which resulted in the prospect of plaintiff losing its 30 percent interest as a tenant in common. Due to personal financial problems of Fairweather, the limited liability company and its principal member, David Fairweather, have had to borrow approximately $6 million to carry the obligations of defendant, plaintiff says, and in doing so pledged all the land in the Burruss Land Tract to several lenders to secure loans made to defendant, with the exception of 435 acres. Plaintiff says defendant could pledge only its 70 percent interest in the real estate used as collateral to secure the loans, and says that defendant pledged that if plaintiff would subordinate its 30 percent interest, it would keep the loans current. Defendant has failed to do so and the loans have been defaulted, which places the entire project in jeopardy of foreclosure. Plaintiff seeks order declaring that the subordination of the 30 percent interest to defendant’s lenders shall be deemed null and void so that plaintiff owns its 30 percent interest free and clear of any liens and encumbrances. Plaintiff also seeks judgment of $4 million.
