JUDGE HERROD

RULING

The Court has considered Plaintiff's December 15, 2025 Motion for Sanctions Against
Shannon Plessel and Crown Point HOA and Order to Show Cause Regarding False Filings and
Wrongful Foreclosure Attempts; Defendant Crown Point HOA's January 2, 2026 Response; and
Plaintiff's January 5, 2026 Reply.
Shannon Plessel is not a party to this case, and any claim for sanctions against her
personally is inappropriate. As to Defendant Crown Point, the motion assumes that the factual
allegations of the Complaint are true, but no motion for summary judgment has been filed by
Plaintiff or granted on any factual issue. The motion is not in the form of a motion for summary
judgment.
Finally, Plaintiff failed to properly serve the motion on Crown Point. Defendant's counsel
did not agree to be served electronically. By Plaintiff's own statement, Defendant's counsel agreed
to serve Plaintiff electronically.

The Court has made no substantive rulings in this case that would support a motion for
sanctions at this time. Further, given that there has been prior litigation concerning HOA lien
foreclosures, claim preclusion or issue preclusion may apply, but the Court does not have a record
from which to make those determinations at this time.

IT IS ORDERED denying Plaintiff's December 15, 2025 motion for sanctions.

RULING

in Support of Motion to Dismiss, or in the Alternative, Motion for Leave to File Sur-Reply, filed
December 11, 2025. A Response has not been filed.

IT IS ORDERED denying the Motion.

RULING

The Court has considered Plaintiff's January 10, 2026 Motion to Compel; and Defendant's
January 16, 2026 Response.
Given that Defendant's Motion to Dismiss is pending, the motion to compel is premature.
IT IS ORDERED denying the motion to compel.
The Court has considered Plaintiff's January 10, 2026 Motion to Maintain Existing
Deadlines; and Defendant's January 16, 2026 Response.
Essentially, Plaintiff is seeking an advisory ruling before Defendant seeks any relief.
IT IS ORDERED denying the Motion to Maintain Existing Deadlines.

CASE DISMISSED

The Court has considered Defendant Crown Point Homeowners Association's January 16,
2026 Motion to Dismiss Pursuant to Rule 12(B)(1), (6); Plaintiff's January 20, 2026 Response; and

IT IS ORDERED granting the motion to dismiss.
This matter is now dismissed in its entirety as there are no remaining Defendants. All
