MINUTE ENTRY
MOTION TO DISMISS
On March 14, 2008, Defendant filed a “Motion to Dismiss”. The Court has reviewed the
pleadings. For purposes of this motion, the Court deems the facts alleged in Plaintiff’s
Complaint to be true.
Plaintiff obtained a judgment against Defendants in justice court on May 30, 2002. On
October 17, 2006, Plaintiff filed a certified copy of this judgment in the Superior Court and, from
that date going forward, the judgment had like effect as a judgment of the Superior Court
pursuant to A.R.S. § 33-962.
SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY
CV 2006-016728
06/23/2008
Docket Code 026
Form V000A
Page 2
Defendants argue that the judgment was not effectively filed in the Superior Court.
Defendants argue that a justice court judgment may not be effectively filed in Superior Court
pursuant to § 33-962 unless accompanied by a “separate information statement” as discussed in
§ 33-967. Defendants’ argument is without merit. A “separate information statement” is a
prerequisite for perfecting a judgment as a lien. However, there is no requirement that such a
“separate information statement” be filed in Superior Court.
If not renewed within five years, judgments expire. Plaintiff’s judgment against
Defendants has never expired. Pursuant to § 12-1611, Plaintiff renewed its judgment against
Defendants by filing the instant action.
Plaintiff perfected its lien on the judgment against Defendants’ property on or about
February 7, 2008, when it recorded the renewed final judgment, accompanied by a § 33-967
“separate information statement”.
Section 33-1807 creates statutory liens for unpaid assessments in favor of homeowners
associations. Such statutory liens are extinguished if an action is not initiated within three years.
In this case, Plaintiff is not seeking to enforce a statutory lien. Rather, Plaintiff is seeking to
enforce a judgment lien. The three-year limitation on statutory liens is not applicable to this
action.
Plaintiff’s Complaint includes a prayer for “reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs…
pursuant to A.R.S. § 33-1807….” Plaintiff admits on page six of the Response filed on April 2,
2008, that “A.R.S. § 33-1807 is inapplicable to this case….” Under the circumstances,
IT IS ORDERED dismissing Plaintiff’s claim for “reasonable attorneys’ fees and
costs… pursuant to A.R.S. § 33-1807….”
Defendants have not established that the remainder of Plaintiff’s Complaint fails to state
a claim upon which relief can be granted. Therefore,
IT IS ORDERED denying the remainder of Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss”.

MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT/MOTION TO STRIKE
A pleading filed by Plaintiff on April 2, 2008, includes a “Motion for Summary
Judgment”. Because they had filed a Motion to Dismiss, Defendants’ answer was not due at the
time the Motion for Summary Judgment was filed. Under the circumstances, Defendants’ filed
on May 5, 2008, a “Motion to Strike” Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment.
The Court has now denied Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss.
IT IS ORDERED establishing the deadline for Defendants’ Answer to be ten court days
after this minute entry is filed by the Clerk of the Court. Under the circumstances, striking
Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment would generate unnecessary attorney fees and would
be inconsistent with the interests of judicial economy. Under the circumstances,
IT IS ORDERED denying Defendants’ Motion to Strike.
Defendants have indicated a need to do discovery before responding to Plaintiff’s Motion
for Summary Judgment. Given all of the circumstances,
IT IS ORDERED extending to September 15, 2008, the deadline for Defendants’
Response to Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment.
TELEPHONIC COMPREHENSIVE PRETRIAL CONFERENCE
On March 16, 2008, Plaintiff filed a “Request for Rule 16(b) Comprehensive Scheduling
Conference”.
IT IS ORDERED setting a telephonic Rule 16 Comprehensive Pretrial Conference on
July 25, 2008 at 10:45 a.m., (allotted time: 15 minutes) in this division.
NOTE: This division will place the conference call at the time of the hearing.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that counsel for all parties shall meet personally before
the Pretrial Conference and prepare a Joint Pretrial Memorandum addressing all applicable
subjects set forth in Rule 16(b) or Rule 16(c) of the Arizona Rules of Civil Procedure. The
parties shall file and provide this Division with a copy of the Joint Pretrial Memorandum no later
than five (5) judicial days before the conference, addressing all applicable subjects in ARCP 16.

Suggested dates for disclosure and discovery will be stated as dates certain and not, for example,
as “___ days before trial”. If counsel are unable to agree on any of the items in the Joint Pretrial
Memorandum, the reasons for their inability to agree shall be set forth in the Memorandum.
Counsel are reminded that the Court may impose sanctions against counsel and/or their
clients for failure to participate in good faith in the Joint Pretrial Conference Memorandum or the
Pretrial Conference.
If a party is not represented by counsel, that party has all of the obligations that would
otherwise be the obligations of counsel.

On September 28, 2007, Defendants filed a pleading entitled “Release of Lis Pendens”.
Through this pleading, Defendants request that “the Court release the Lis Pendens recorded” in
relation to this cause number. The Court makes note of the following:
•
This action remains pending. Through the action, Plaintiff seeks, among other
relief, foreclosure on the subject property.
•
Defendants provide no factual or legal support for their motion.
•
Since litigation is pending regarding the subject property, there appears to be no
legal basis for ordering release of the Lis Pendens.

MINUTE ENTRY
On April 2, 2008, Plaintiff filed a pleading which includes a “Cross-Motion for Summary
Judgment”. On October 14, 2008, Defendants also filed a pleading which includes a Cross-
Motion for Summary Judgment”. The Court has reviewed the pleadings. Pursuant to Rule 7.1,
the Court declines to schedule oral argument.
The Court will not comment on all arguments made; however, the Court makes note of
the following:
•
In essence, Defendants argue that a renewed judgment cannot form the basis of a
valid lien. The Court rejects this argument. Plaintiff renewed its judgment
against Defendants on November 3, 2006. Plaintiff perfected this lien by
recording on or about February 7, 2008. At a minimum, this lien will remain
viable for five years after renewal of the judgment upon which it is based.

•
While Plaintiff could have pursued relief pursuant to A.R.S. § 33-1807, Plaintiff
did not do so. Section 33-1807 does not abrogate other remedies available to a
planned community association.
•
A.R.S. § 33-722 precludes a creditor from simultaneously seeking money
damages and foreclosure. However, it does not preclude a creditor from first
obtaining a money judgment, and later seeking foreclosure based on the
unsatisfied money judgment. Mid Kansas Fed. S. & L.V. Dynamic Dev., 167
Ariz. 122, 126 (1991).
•
Plaintiff seeks issuance of a Writ of General Execution, requiring an officer to
satisfy the amount of $17,352.15, plus an additional three dollars per day going
forward from April 2, 2008.1 Based on the subject judgment and a conservative
calculation of interest pursuant to A.R.S. § 44-1201, the judgment sought reflects
the amount owed to Plaintiff by Defendants.
•
The homestead exemption statute does not prevent issuance of a Writ of General
Execution in this case. However, it would prevent a foreclosure sale unless the
bid satisfies Defendants’ homestead plus the amount of any consensual liens with
priority. A.R.S. § 33-1105.
Plaintiff has established that it is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Therefore, it is
ordered granting Plaintiff’s “Cross-Motion for Summary Judgment” and denying Defendants’
“Cross-Motion for Summary Judgment”.
INACTIVE CALENDAR
IT IS ORDERED vacating any future court settings in this case. Further,
IT IS ORDERED placing this case on the Inactive Calendar until February 2, 2009. If
a proposed form of judgment is not submitted by that date, this case will be dismissed without
further notice.
1 It is expected that relief sought by Plaintiff will also include an award of fees and costs incurred in this case.
