The moving party brought a motion to discharge a certificate of pending litigation (CPL) that was granted to the responding party ex parte.
The court found that the responding party failed to make full and fair disclosure of material facts on the ex parte motion, including provisions in the agreement of purchase and sale prohibiting the registration of a CPL and disavowing any legal or equitable interest in the property.
The court also found that the property was not unique to the responding party, as it was purchased as an investment.
The motion was granted, the CPL was discharged, and costs were awarded to the moving party.
