Getz v. Edwards CA2/8
This case involves several lawsuits concerning the sale and development of the property at 5303 Hermitage Avenue in Valley Village. However, the issues on appeal are few. Plaintiff Jennifer Getz, a former tenant of an apartment on the property, sued the owner defendants, Sydney Edwards, Eric Edwards, and Marta Lathrop, after they contracted to sell the property to Urban Blox, LLC (who assigned its right to purchase the property to UB Valley Village, LLC). UB Valley Village intended to develop the property, and while in escrow, filed plans for approval of its project with the City of Los Angeles (City).
Plaintiff alleged she had a right of first refusal to purchase the property, and that she was owed compensation for her work as manager of the property. Plaintiff and the owner defendants ultimately settled plaintiff’s claims by confidential settlement agreement which was signed by the trial court, and over which the court retained jurisdiction to enforce.
