The following are worth highlighting as an example:<\/p>\n<p>1. &#8211; PENALTIES: Article 15.2 of this Law foresees the penalty of depriving the neighbour debtor of his right to vote and states the following on paragraph two: <\/p>\n<p>2.- \u201cThose home owners who are not up to date on their community payments when the Meeting starts and have not contested the Meeting Minutes (ACTA) at Court or made provisions to deposit the amount due in Court or the Notary, will be able to participate in the meeting but will not have the right to vote. The names of the home owners with no right to vote as well as their shares in the community will be reflected on the Meeting Minutes but will not be taking into consideration to reach the majority required by Law<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CONSULTATION: There is one neighbour, in the urbanization where I live, who systematically refuses to pay the community fees, which of course upsets the other owners.
