MINUTE ENTRY
The Court has received and reviewed Plaintiff’s Emergency Motion for Temporary
Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction filed on May 6, 2026. On May 5, 2026, in case
number CV2026-015965, the Honorable Greg S. Como found that Nataijah Fields “is subject to
eviction from the property”. Plaintiff’s Emergency Motion for Temporary Restraining Order and
Preliminary Injunction attempts to go around Judge Como’s ruling. Plaintiff has appealed that
decision. Any attempt to stay the Courts ruling should be addressed before Judge Como in
CV2026-015965 or with the Arizona Court of Appeals. Therefore,
IT IS ORDERED denying the Plaintiff’s Emergency Motion for Temporary Restraining
Order and Preliminary Injunction filed on May 6, 2026.

RULING
The Court has reviewed Defendant Sun Groves HOA’s (“Sun Groves”) Motion to
Dismiss Complaint and Plaintiff’s Response. The Court has also taken judicial notice of the
action filed in CV2026-015965, which Plaintiff sought to have consolidated with this matter. In
CV2026-015965, Kati Soundos Nasser, the property owner, sought to evict Plaintiff Fields from
the property Plaintiff had apparently occupied for three years. Ms. Nasser, who had originally
bought her case against Plaintiff in justice court, was successful in obtaining an order from the
Superior Court evicting Plaintiff from the property and a finding that Plaintiff has no ownership
interest in the property. The court rejected Plaintiff’s claim that she was entitled to possession of
the property based on payments allegedly made to a third-party or adverse possession. (See
Minute Entry under cause number CV2026-015965 dated May 5, 2026.)
Here, Plaintiff has brought this quiet title action against Ms. Nasser and Sun Groves.
While ownership of the property has been found to be with Ms. Kati Soundos Nasser, Plaintiff
seeks quiet title against Sun Groves. Specifically, Plaintiff alleges that she made capital
improvements to the property which has resulted in the “owner” being unjustly enriched. Sun

Groves seeks dismissal of this action against it on the basis that Plaintiff has not alleged any
ownership interest against it. Review of Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint indicates that it makes
no ownership allegation against Sun Groves over the property located at 6291 S. Pearl Drive,
Chandler, Arizona 85249. Instead, the complaint makes an allegation that the property owner
has been unjustly enriched based on property improvements she made, and that Plaintiff seeks to
prevent Defendant Nasser from evicting Plaintiff from the property. No issues are raised against
Sun Groves.
Dismissal under Rule 12(b)(6) is appropriate only if a plaintiff is not entitled to relief, as
a matter of law, on any interpretation of the facts alleged in the plaintiff's complaint. Cullen v.
Koty–Leavitt Ins. Agency, Inc., 216 Ariz. 509, 515 ¶ 12, 168 P.3d 917, 923 (App.2007). “When
adjudicating a Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss, Arizona courts look only to the pleading itself
and consider the well-pled factual allegations contained therein.” See, e.g., Dressler v. Morrison,
212 Ariz. 279, 281 ¶ 11, 130 P.3d 978, 980 (2006); Long v. Ariz. Portland Cement Co., 89 Ariz.
366, 367–68, 362 P.2d 741, 742 (1961). This Court must also assume the truth of the well-pled
factual allegations and indulge all reasonable inferences therefrom. Doe ex rel. Doe v. State, 200
Ariz. 174, 175 ¶ 2, 24 P.3d 1269, 1270 (2001); Long, 89 Ariz. at 367, 362 P.2d at 742. Mere
conclusory statements are insufficient to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Cullen v.
Auto-Owners Ins. Co, 218 Ariz. 417 (2008). Although the inclusion of conclusory statements
does not invalidate a complaint, Long v. Ariz. Portland Cement Co., 89 Ariz. 366, 369, 362 P.2d
741, 743 (1961), a complaint that states only legal conclusions, without any supporting factual
allegations, does not satisfy Arizona's notice pleading standard under Rule 8. See also Belen
Loan Investors, LLC v. Bradley, 231 Ariz 448, 296 P.3d 984 (App. 2012). The purpose of a
complaint is to “give the opponent fair notice of the nature and basis of the claim and indicate
generally the type of litigation involved.” Cullen, id., quoting Mackey v. Spangler, 81 Ariz. 113,
115 (1956). By the same token, a complaint that states only legal conclusions, without
supporting factual allegations, does not comply with Rule 8’s notice pleading standard. Cullen,
id. If a complaint does not comply with Rule 8, the defendant may move to dismiss for failure to
state a claim. Cullen, id.; Ariz. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6).
IT IS ORDERED granting Defendant Sun Groves’ Motion to Dismiss.
IT IS ORDERED dismissing the case against Defendant Sun Groves without prejudice.
Defendant Sun Grove also seeks attorney’s fees against Plaintiff for filing her complaint
against it without a legal basis. See A.R.S. § 12-349(a)(1). Given that Plaintiff and property
owner Ms. Nasser have been involved in litigation regarding the property, it is apparent that Sun
Groves was not appropriately named as a Defendant in this matter. Therefore,

IT IS ORDERED granting Defendant Sun Groves’ request for attorneys’ fees and costs
pursuant to A.R.S. § 12-349(a)(1).
IT IS ORDERED that Defendant Sun Groves shall provide their Application for
Attorneys’ Fees and Cost, as well as a proposed form of order for this Court’s signature no later
than 20 days from the date of this order. The proposed form of order shall leave blank the
amounts sought for Attorneys’ Fees and Costs, and it shall properly contain judgment language
referring to Rule 54(b).
