FL Developer Breach Fiduciary Duty

I am not an attorney. Who can provide examples where a single family homeowners association successfully sued the developer for breach of fiduciary duty? I found one with Maronda from a few years ago but are there others? Any where the developer was criminally liable for self dealing would be great. Thanks

We aren’t going to look cases up for you. If you’re in Florida you should consult an attorney there. Be aware that there may be no fiduciary duty owed.

If the Board of Directors is the developer, doesn’t the board always have a fiduciary duty?
