the guy pays his own fees but the costs towards the strata, come from all the residents. Each year you pay a strata fee that goes to the strata fund for various things. like towing, gardening etc..

Not really, the cheap old man represented himself.. (which honestly I think contributed to his loss).

He represented himself. The final bill is to be settled when everything is all said and done.

Saw this on CTV 6 o'clock news yesterday.

Fuck some people are so fucking arrogant. RCMP had to forcefully evict him because he wouldn't leave, and then they had to take him to the hospital for heart palpitations. And right before he left in the ambulance, he said he was going to appeal the ruling. (Also said the RCMP were "abusive" even though they didn't touch him LOL)

I honestly hope he drops dead. People like this come here, find loopholes in our SHIT justice system and abuse the crap out of it. If he died today I'd go to his funeral and clap.

:2finger: to this guy.

Condo parking dispute leads to forced eviction of Port Coquitlam couple - British Columbia - CBC News
The Port Coquitlam couple who lost a series of court cases over a dispute around parking spaces at their condo, have been forcibly evicted from their home, and the locks to the unit changed.

RCMP escorted Cheng-Fu Bea from his home of 17 years under a court order issued last month that ruled the Beas must sell.

"The lawyer used the RCMP to force me out of my unit. It's abuse," said a visibly distressed Bea. "Where can I go? I have no place to go."

Cheng-Fu Bea was evicted from his Port Coquitlam home after a court battle over parking spaces. (CBC)

"Today we are here to keep the peace," Cpl. Jamie Chung of Coquitlam RCMP said. "Our first priority is to make sure everyone is safe. And make sure both parties are following the court order."

The court order came after a six-year battle between the Beas and their strata council, prompted by the council's 2006 decision to change their bylaws and limit visitor parking spaces to visitors only.

After the strata fined Bea for continuing to park in the visitor spot, he took the strata to court, representing himself in 50 court appearances before 28 different judges.

"It's been six years of an ongoing dispute," said strata member, Carlyne Jimenez. "He keeps taking us to court and filing one petition after another. And I mean we have had enough. All the owners have had enough."

The action cost the strata $173,000 in legal fees, to be recouped from the sale of the condo, with any monies left over going to the Beas.

"We wish him all the very best," said strata council president, Iuliu Varva. "We wish that he will build his life again somewhere else. And hopefully he learned a lesson. And we learned a lesson from this."

But Bea says he is not ready to give up, and will do anything he can to get back into his home.

more lawsuit coming! He also feels the RCMP used too much force to remove him......

It sucks he's losing his place but he brought it on himself so it's hard for me to feel bad for him.

it's people like him that strata exists... We all bitch and complain about the fees and the restrictions that we have, but people like him would make living in a condo a LIVING HELL. Majority of people are "ok" but it only takes one moron (most buildings have more than one), to ruin things for everyone else.

Well this guy seems to be bullying his way into the court system why not give him a taste of his own mecidine.

What a heartless and unjustified society, just as planned.
Im my common sense world this problem would've got settled in the first court case or if he was breaking condo codes, his car towed every time.

But he is the one who keeps suing and cause his home. It was was own fault. Most likely his car have been towed and fine countless times and he felt he is right so he goes through the court system.

No what contributed to his loss is the fact that he is 100% in the wrong.

There was absolutely no case here. The guy is an imbecile for even pursuing this.

So what happened in the first court case?

No one knows but I am going to assume he lost because he keeps suing afterwards.

6o4__boi 06-17-2014 11:00 AM

what a waste of life


and that whole theatrics about "having chest pains" while on camera. I hope he dies.
Something about these type of scum who think they are above all that just makes my blood boil.

CharlesInCharge 06-17-2014 11:01 AM

When the Crown unjustly takes away your home, one you've slaved over most of your life... this kind of shock could take a toll on ones health.

@Mr.HappySilp
So you're blaming him without having all the facts and made your conclusions from the sway of the media. It happens all the time.

Look who's making conclusions now. "Unjustly takes away your home" Don't make me laugh, even with the media information everything here is crystal clear.

common sense, when you're using THREE, 3, GODDAMNED parking spots to store your shit when there are CLEARLY defined rules regarding parking assignment, you deserve rock, rain, shit and lightning to drop on your face. The asshole had the balls to even question and keep questioning why he was in the wrong.

What am i doing feeding the troll. I just had to.

CharlesInCharge 06-17-2014 11:20 AM

Didnt the Strata rules change on him... what if the original contract he agreed to sign let the owner use visitor parking?

Did he lose the first case?

You're guys minds live in a bizzaro world where NWO ethics takes the upper seat. Does one need to be rich to purse the court system in this country? Apparently.
All decisions are pretty much decided by the Crown corporation (not by juries) which only looks after its own interest.
Their Strata system is also the biggest rip off for owners... I'd say more then 70% of fees get pocketed by the Crown.

I looked who posted and then looked at this start of the sentence and had to double check my office for cameras because I was certain I was being punked. I was just waiting for Ashton to come bursting in and be like, "I got you dude".

Who's decision was it to live in a place where living/parking conditions could be controlled by a strata?

vitaminG 06-17-2014 11:31 AM

Why didn't they just tow his car. If he was paying impound fees every time he parked there it would probably have cost him a lot more than his lawsuits

CharlesInCharge 06-17-2014 11:32 AM

Because they may have been in the wrong to do so. The media sure isnt going to tell the truth here.

@ICE BOY
Crown has a monopoly on everything here, are there alternatives?

fliptuner 06-17-2014 11:34 AM

Yep, live somewhere else.

CharlesInCharge 06-17-2014 11:37 AM

How does one avoid Strata... become rich to own a detached house?
