As in Branches Neighborhood Corp. v. CalAtlantic Group, Inc. (2018) 26 Cal.App.5th 743, the CC&Rs for a condominium tower required a majority vote of member owners in favor before the association could bring suit against the developer (which of course wrote the CC&Rs). This decision holds that Civ. Code 5386, which renders such provisions null and void and which expressly applies to all pending cases in which there was no final judicial decision on the merits before the new section became effective on January 1, 2020, applies to this case. Though the trial court had rendered its judgment before 2020, the association had appealed, so there was no final judicial decision in the case yet. Also, the decision follows Aldea Dos Vientos v. CalAtlantic Group, Inc. (2020) 44 Cal.App.5th 1073 in holding that the majority consent CC&R is void as against public policy even if section 5386 were inapplicable.
