Our By-laws state that you have to be in good standing:

Trustees shall be elected to serve for two (2) years, or until their successors are elected and duly qualified. At the first election, three (3) members shall be elected for a two (2) year term and two (2) members elected for a one (1) year term. Any member who wishes to run as a candidate for a board position must officially submit their name to the board no later than 3 weeks prior to the annual meeting. Any member that wishes to run as a candidate for the Board or to fill an appointed position on the Board must be a member of the HOA in good standing. This includes having no outstanding assessments (to include interest), fines, liens, foreclosure proceedings, no current & or ongoing CC&R violations, and no pending litigation against the HOA or its Board members.

If the Judgment went in favor of the homeowner and if the board files an appeal, should the homeowner still be allowed to run for candidacy?

WardellD, I am curious as to who made this judgement and the basis for their decision. Also, I wonder about the expenditure of funds for such a matter. Is this a hypothetical question or an ego fight?

IMHO there are usually better solutions than litigation for such a problem.

The correct responses for the question would be the homeowner has the right to run as a candidate.
