UNLEASH THE LAWYERS?? THE LATEST BATTLE CRY OF THE BROWARD COALITION

An Opinion By Jan Bergemann

I didn’t believe my eyes when I saw the latest flyer published by the two leading “ladies” of the Broward Coalition: Patti Lynn and Mary Macfie.

Make no mistake: The only people they can unleash their lawyers on are their neighbors, people who live within the dictatorial reach of these two ladies. The rest of Florida will be safe from the nonsense these two ladies are coming up with. And -- considering the many complaints I am getting from owners living in associations that are part of the Broward Coalition -- they have been doing this long before they published this flyer!

The headline of this flyer would make for a real good laugh – if it wouldn’t be so sad. But this is exactly what this community association system creates: Dictators who rule – with the help of attorneys – with an iron fist.

Remember, these are the same two ladies who are fighting side by side with the attorneys of Becker & Poliakoff and Kaye Bender Rembaum against the owner-friendly HOA REFORM BILL and FAIR ELECTIONS in Homeowners’ Associations.

I guess they know that fair elections would end their rule over the community associations of parts of Broward County!

Here was the flyer of the Broward Coalition headlined “Unleash The Lawyers” which I removed because of the letter from the law firm of Frank Weinberg Black claiming that this flyer was copyrighted.

Here is my response to this letter I e-mailed to attorney McTague on Monday, November 24, 2014:

Your file No. 9990.000

Mr. McTague,

I am in receipt of your letter dated November 17, 2014. Please understand that I will not drive 14 miles to pick up the certified copy of this letter.

I wasn’t aware that the contents of an e-mail sent to “undisclosed recipients” – unsolicited – is – in your opinion -- copyrighted. But since I honestly feel that this issue isn’t worth fighting over I will remove the Broward Coalition Flyer headlined “Unleash The Lawyers” from the CCFJ website. Please note that there is no copyright symbol on the flyer in question.

I will replace it with a scanned copy of your letter which just proves the point I was trying to make with my posted opinion.

As to “false statements”? Please understand that I get more complaints from owners living in associations being part of the Broward Coalition than from any other area in Florida. And if you look at the bills the Broward Coalition supported and opposed in the last decade you might understand why I have certain opinions.

Regards,
