Association Dues - When can you stop paying

[Waverly_Dalmas]

An Association receives dues to pay for the items as set forth in the By-Laws of your ownership. When the repairs and services are no longer being provided due to the Association being bankrupt, at what point can you discontinue paying your dues for services not received?

How fair is it for a handful of people to continute paying thier dues to avoid a lien being placed on thier dwelling if no services are being provided?

Why should these tenants have to continue paying dues, when others have not.

What legal grounds do you as an associatin member have for discontinuing paying dues if you are not receiving the services as set forth in the By-Laws?

Anyone out there with some legal background that can give us some insight?

Thanks

This is difficult to say since you have all the paperwork. I'm curious as to what other people are doing and why you think you'll have a lien placed on your dwelling if the association has declared bankruptcy. What is being done about it?
