Port Coquitlam couple must give up condo over parking spot - British Columbia - CBC News (http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/port-coquitlam-couple-must-give-up-condo-over-parking-spot-1.2642860)

A Port Coquitlam, B.C., husband and wife are losing their condo following a six-year court battle involving 50 appearances before 28 different judges in dozens of courts — all over their apartment's parking spot.

In a 14-page ruling, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Christopher Grauer says the problems began in August 2006 when a dispute over parking at the condo complex at 2378 Rindall Ave. led the strata council to declare the parking area common property and assign specific parking spots to units.

Cheng-Fu Bea and his wife, Huei-Chi Yang Bea, would not accept their strata's decision and launched a petition in B.C. Supreme Court, which Grauer says was their right.

The court ruled the strata was well within its jurisdiction to implement the new parking regime.

Instead of appealing the decision, the couple launched a series of new petitions, all of which failed because the argument had already been heard. The petitions were followed by various appeals that, according to the strata's lawyer, Phil Dougan, eventually involved 28 different judges in dozens of courts. The couple lost all the appeals.

Meanwhile, Grauer says in his ruling, the Beas continued to disobey the order restricting them to their assigned parking spot. The strata, which Dougan says has incurred $173,000 in legal costs defending itself from the Beas' court actions over six years, finally applied for a contempt of court ruling.

The Beas also owe $53,000 in court costs.

"There's no rhyme or reason to it," Dougan told CBC News. "It's simply been Mr. and Mrs. Bea trying again and again to find any judge they could, who might agree with them in several petitions that all argue the same thing."

Contempt of court

In a sternly worded judgment, Grauer says a person's property rights would usually be irrelevant to an appropriate sanction in a contempt of court proceeding, but "this case is not normal," wrote Grauer.

"Here, the property interest in question is precisely what fuels the Beas’ contemptuous acts and gives rise to the injustice that results."

"In this case, it appears certain that Mrs. Bea is destined to lose her property in any event through the enforcement of the many judgments for costs registered against it.

"The question is whether the owners should be put through the additional expense and frustration of proceeding in that way in the face of the Beas’ unremitting pattern of abuse of the court process, and the ever-mounting costs of dealing with them. I think not. The time to end their abuse of the court’s process is now."

The judge has given the Beas until June 15 to vacate the property and has authorized the RCMP to remove them by force if necessary.

Dougan says his clients are pleased, but fear an appeal.

As for the parking spot, it sells with the unit.

:lawl:

I am just beyond words...

[nabs]

What was the original argument about?

[Presto]

From reading the comments in that article, I believe the whole problem was started with the Beas owning 3 vehicles, but only had one private parking spot. They took up 2 visitor parking spots for their other 2 vehicles. They were fined by the strata, and in response, they sued. Again, and again, and again, etc...

[Gucci Mane]

guy is an idiot. kept parking in a visitor spot in the underground parkade and was advised by strata to stop but kept doing it anyways. then got fined etc, took strata to court and lost and keeps parking in the spot. all because he feels he has the "right" to park in the visitor parking stall because he owns a unit on the property.

[320icar]

lol, what an entitled prick. dont like strata rules? move to a new building.

[SkinnyPupp]

I'm sure once they "lost face" it was no longer a matter of not liking the rules or anything like that. It was all about getting their "win" back in any way possible. Stubborn fucks just couldn't accept that they were in the wrong :lawl:

[punkwax]

Stratas :fuckthatshit:

[fliptuner]

Eats up $173k of strata money, can't afford a lawyer.

[bing]

Here's a video of Mr. Bea, a stubborn old man.

He screwed himself with some severe overreaching. The strata is well within its rights here.

[PeanutButter]

Can the strata sue Mr. Bea for the $170k they incurred during this legal process?
If I were living in that building I would be choked that my money had to find this futile court process.

Court has ordered the property be sold to cover the costs

[320icar]

^ the justice system works!

[vitaminG]

Except only 53k is covered out of 173k. Probably still a couple grand for each unit to pay cause of this asshole. Plus all the taxpayers money wasted on the court resources he used.

[SB7]

What a fucking moron, glad to see that they got owned by the judge in the end :woot2:

WTF does he needs 3 car? One for his wife and one for himself....... Also if he really wants I am sure he can rent other parkings from other people or just park on the streets. Well at least they are force to sell their place and settle the bill.

[Manic!]

It's not over yet. They still got to get him out of the place.

[fliptuner]

I wonder what would've happened if the strata got the car(s) towed every time.

[Mr.HappySilp]

It's not over yet. They still got to get him out of the place.

Well if they refuse to move out the strata can get the RCMP to help remove them. I would love to see that happens lol. Remove to move and get taze by the police.

I wonder what would've happened if the strata got the car(s) towed every time.

I would think they try that as well. If someone parks in my parking spot I would have to car tow right away. Easiest way people will learn not to park at other's parking spot.

[GLOW]

In my sisters condo I forgot the visitors pass and got towed once. No sweat of the strata back.

[Ch28]

I would think they try that as well. If someone parks in my parking spot I would have to car tow right away. Easiest way people will learn not to park at other's parking spot.

Issue with towing right away is that the person will know where you parked and likely key or damage your car :heckno:

[Manic!]

RCMP is not a moving service. For renters you have to hire a sheriff. They charge around 2k if you can find one. Then you have to store there stuff for 90 days.

173k is the outstanding legal costs of the strata
53k is the outstanding legal costs of Bea

with condo prices the way they are i'm sure selling the condo will cover all legal costs and then some

[underscore]

^ depends how much of the condo was owned by their bank (mortgage)

The RCMP will come to the property and remove the people on the basis of trespassing. Bailiffs, not the RCMP or Sheriffs, carry out judgements of the court and can be hired to repossess property.

They just got removed from the property today. Strata will try to sell property to recoup legal costs.

[murd0c]

so they lose the house and will still owe the bank money for the mortgage? Hopefully going bankrupt was worth a parking space!!

[multicartual]

Those fucking cocksuckers on the strata should have just had a heart and given the old chinese man a visitor parking spot.


People who are on strata councils are 99% likely to be complete fucking assholes

[falcon]

I'd imagine that the leinholder on the house gets first dibs to any money gained from the sale. Given that most people have at least SOME equity in their house.. the mortgage should get paid off and the left overs go to the strata.

[falcon]

Looks like you didn't read the article, watch the video OR read any of the comments from people who are on that strata in the comment section. This man has been a pain and nuisance for everyone around him for years. He got what he deserved.

I'm not a fan of strata councils but this guy was totally in the wrong. He tossed the middle finger up and parked in the visitors spot with no regard to how it impacted anyone around him. He then went on to keep suing the strata with no real just cause and cost everyone else who owns there money. It sucks he's losing his place but he brought it on himself so it's hard for me to feel bad for him.

[multicartual]

It's just one fucking parking spot!!! Let the old man have it, shit!


Certainly the strata could have worked with him. How much did he spend, $173,000?


Imagine if both parties decided he could just pay $100 extra a month to strata for the spot, or perhaps used 10k of his own money to buy it out, or something?


Fuck it's just one parking spot, why all this drama for everyone involved?

It was because of their blatent disregard for the strata bylaws. Instead of complying, he decided to run them through the ringer with lawsuit after lawsuit. You can't expect anyone to abide by strata bylaws if they started making concessions willy-nilly. They're there for a reason.

Don't know about that particular complex, but in my apartment building there is only about 10 visitor parking stalls for the 45 odd strata lots. If I needed an additional parking spot I had the option to purchase one during the pre-sale of my condo. The cost was 40k.

Now maybe 10k is fair for the spot, and maybe $100 a month is fair, but maybe they only had a limited amount of stalls, and wanted them available for everyone to use when they had family over, and not just owned by one person. That is after all why visitors stalls exist. So that they maybe shared and used fairly between all strata lots.

This world doesn't revolve around singular people who are annoying enough, or thick-headed enough to just do whatever they want. I am happy this strata council stood their ground, and I am happy they got rid of their asshole of a neighbor.

Needless to say I know you won't understand any of this, because anyone who isn't a free spirit like you, is just a 9-5 drone, who has to live by the rules and can never have any fun. I also know you know absolutely nothing about Stratas and being a good neighbor after that other thread you made.

[hud 91gt]

Strata's sometimes are a PITA. Mostly because of dick swabs like this couple. I hope they have to sell their house. I'm sure their life has been a living hell from all the other owners in the building since their court hearings have started though.

[fliptuner]

I'm sure a lot of other people in the complex wanted another spot. Maybe they rented them from other people, maybe they parked on the street. These people (Bea's) aren't special.

What if everyone wants another spot? Then what? You can't just sell and rent a spot to this guy coz he wants it. Hell I want 1 million dollars from my job every pay cheque too.

There are only a number of visitor parking for EVERYONE to use. Not for him only. My sister and her husband is looking for an apartment now. Guess what, they have 3 cars so they are looking for apartments with 2 parking and hopefully park the 3rd on the street. Is call consumer awareness and being smart. If anyone tries to park at my parking spot I will have their car tow in no time. Need an extra spot? Buy one or park on the streets.

[J____]

173k is the outstanding legal costs of the strata

i would but that would suck, having to sell your house to cover court costs over something so stupid.

[tonyzoomzoom]

Wow. A quarter-million dollar lesson for a stubborn selfish dumb ass.

[multicartual]

I also know you know absolutely nothing about Stratas and being a good neighbor after that other thread you made.


Oh gosh I had beers with that neighbor a week ago!!!

[multicartual]

What if everyone wants another spot?


But they don't, it was just this one guy!

[EmperorIS]

I want to laugh at his misfortune directly to his face.

[meme405]

But they don't, it was just this one guy!

Yeah but after they just gave him a stall you bet your ass everyone else would have wanted one as well.

I'm not sure if you have read any of the articles, but three visitor spots were used by him for STORAGE. after receiving numerous strata violation tickets, they refused to pay which by the contract they sign they have to in the end.From then on, it went down hill. And 90% of his interviews are sob stories about him fucking up.
Like your car, you get a ticket and don't pay you end up biting the bullet 5 years later when you renew you licence

[Lowered_Klass]

I feel sorry for the other owners in this building. Not only for having to deal with this man-cunt for the past few years, but because they're ultimately paying the court costs to fight this jerkoff with their strata fees.

When they showed him leaving with 'chest pains' at the end of the news story tonight, I hope they were real. Stubborn piece of shit.

[$_$]

Can someone explain why, if he sued the strata he didn't need to put up court and lawyer fees upfront? Who was covering all these fees during these 6 years?

[asahai69]

this case was probably a dream for the lawyers. they're the real winners

[kross9]

Can someone explain why, if he sued the strata he didn't need to put up court and lawyer fees upfront? Who was covering all these fees during these 6 years?

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..

[godwin]

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

this case was probably a dream for the lawyers. they're the real winners

[godwin]

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

[melloman]

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 (http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/condo-parking-dispute-leads-to-forced-eviction-of-port-coquitlam-couple-1.2677670)
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

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."
Coquitlam condo eviction

Coquitlam RCMP evicted Cheng-Fu Bea Monday after a six-year court battle over parking spaces at Bea's strata. (CBC)

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......

[Spidey]

They should have tease him =D

teasing is just plain mean. Don't you know the stigma around bullying these days?!!!

[Spidey]

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.

[Mr.HappySilp]

teasing is just plain mean. Don't you know the stigma around bullying these days?!!!

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

[CharlesInCharge]

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.

[Mr.HappySilp]

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.

[meme405]

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

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.

[CharlesInCharge]

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.So what happened in the first court case?

[Mr.HappySilp]

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]

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]

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.

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]

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.

[quasi]

You're guys minds live in a bizzaro world


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".

[fliptuner]

Their Strata system is also the biggest rip off for owners... I'd say more then 70% of fees get pocketed by the Crown.

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

[vitaminG]

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]

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]

Yep, live somewhere else.

[CharlesInCharge]

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

The old guy should just bite the bullet and pay for an extra spot someone who was selling theres.

[Soundy]

Did he lose the first case?
YES, HE DID. READ THE FUCKING ARTICLES.

Let me try to word this in a way you'll understand:
The evil Zionist-Chinese guy abused the visitor parking spaces, which he wasn't allowed to do in the first place. They're there for ALL the owners to use for their guests, not just him for his own cars.

The other friendly Non-Zionist owners - aka "the Strata" - all voted together to change the rules so they could stop this happening.

The Zionist pig persisted in abusing the spaces, and when he got fined for it, decided to sue all the other owners collectively (aka "the Strata").

He lost his court case (which is weird, because Zionists always win these things), so he appealed. And petitioned. And appealed. And counter-sued. And every single time, the courts ruled against him.

All the while, the lizard people (aka lawyers) kept collecting their fees, defending the nice non-Zionist Strata from their would-be overlord.

So now, said Zionist Overlord's house will be sold to pay for those costs, and he will need to carry on his merry way, finding some other peoples to oppress.

So, sorry Chuckles, there's no conspiracy here: a big group of hardworking homeowners banded together to get rid of one selfish prick who was making their lives hell, end of story.

[Soundy]

BTW, I love the "I have nowhere else to go" thing... hey dipshit, you've had six years to prepare for this eventuality and have something else lined up. Go live in your cars.

[GLOW]

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

quite the opposite. own a detached house and become poor :troll:

seriously though. this guy abused the parking spots, then tried to abuse the court system. stubborn old man paid for being so pig headed.

which begs the question, why didnt the appeal process have to end at 60th time was it? and not the 100th time where the Crown could put the guy in debt and have him work for the city as a slave?

edit -
All of this PoCo townhouse guys saved money from working a shit job (most likely)... is going to go to the ZioAmerican minions of upper "class" leaches to eat great dinners and keep this city running smooth.

Comprehension pwns you. The Crown is not involved in civil matters. It took the Strata finally being fed up enough with his shit to request a contempt of court ruling.

When someone brings an appeal, the court can't simply NOT hear it because the guy is a bullheaded douche; the case must be heard and the defendant has to show up to defend themselves to avoid a default judgement against them.

Here's a question: why didn't idiotstick end it after the 20th, 30th, or 40th appeal was denied? He could have ended it at any time. He could have accepted the first defeat, sold the condo, and moved on to somewhere else. For that matter, he could have simply, oh I dunno, NOT PARKED IN THE VISITOR SPACES?? and then none of this would have happened.

If he's in debt for the rest of his life, it's his own stupid fault for continuing to push it.

Tell us, what would you have said if, on the 50th try, the court had simply said, "No, you've been told no 49 times now, we're not hearing your case any more, go away"? I know: you would have beaked about how The System was denying him his due process, or some such shit.

No, he ABUSED the process, ABUSED the court system, and now he must pay for that. And he has only himself to blame.

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

Rent.

Buy a place that uses property management instead of a strata council.

Wow you've said so many things here.
First of all the Crown Im talking about is the Crown Corporation that owns everything in Canada.

The Crown Corporation holds the title to world wide Crown land in Crown colonies like Canada, Australia & New Zealand. British parliament & the British prime minister serve as a public front for the hidden power of these ruling crown families.

Second, what evidence did the judge see in the 2nd court session that was different from the 50th judge to call the rcmp and close the case?

Canada's Kangaroo courts, should yield some google finds on the truths of our system.

None. It was the strata's request for a contempt ruling that finally ended it. separate case.

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.


In any society where kindness were an important virtue, the neighbors would have got together and just probably decided to give the old man his parking spot. It was obviously VERY dear to him to fight over it.


Shit, if someone likes and needs something THAT much, just let them have it and be glad they can enjoy it that much!

He already had one spot, same as everyone else. He took two or three more that were there for EVERYONE to use. In a society where greed isn't a virtue and fairness is, he'd have stuck to the one space he was entitled to and played nice with his neighbors.

Instead, he decided he should get more than everyone else... and ended up with nothing. That's what greed gets you.

[multicartual]

Everything I've heard it was over a SPOT in the cul-de-sac that was in front of his house?


If he was really taking up 2-3 spots then fuck that guy what a dick, haha

Well you know what, I am sure if given the chance EVERYONE in that complex would want another free parking and claim as their own. I would even if I don't have 2 cars. One more free parking means I can sell my unit for a higher price and have my own private visitor parking.

It's a condo complex. The parking spot in question is in the parking garage. He was taking up visitor parking for his own personal use. By the looks of it, most units are sold with 2 spots, meaning this was probably a 3rd stall.
Watch the video.

[IMASA]

If you read the comments on the CBC website, residents in the same building have posted that this guys had 3 cars and only 1 designated parking spot. He was taking up 2 visitor parking spots for years. Then his son moved out so he was only taking up 1 visitor parking spot. Either way, this guy got what he deserved.

[CharlesInCharge]

None. It was the strata's request for a contempt ruling that finally ended it. separate case.So the court was in the wrong for not making the fine/tow ruling in the first appeal and let this drag on for so many times. Strata then should recover their losses from the courts... or have you also adapted bizarro world rules of law too?

edit - what was this guys job?

Wow, the justice system works sometimes.

On the bright side, he can really use the visitors spots now... LOL

Port Coquitlam couple must sell their condo after lengthy legal battle with their strata council: Appeal court (http://www.theprovince.com/technology/Port+Coquitlam+couple+must+sell+their+condo+after+ lengthy+legal+battle+with+their+strata/10764801/story.html)

A Port Coquitlam couple will have to sell their condo after being found in contempt of court following a protracted legal battle with their strata council.

In a ruling released Tuesday, the B.C. Court of Appeal upheld a ruling that orders the drastic measure for Cheng-Fu Bea and Huei-Chi Yang Bea.

....snip...

But in her reasons for judgment, B.C. Court of Appeal Justice Nicole Garson said Mrs. Bea, the registered owner of the suit, had shown a “contemptuous disregard” for court orders both by her own conduct and the conduct she authorized her husband to pursue.

“As the chambers judge found, it is Mrs. Bea’s continued ownership of the strata unit that fuels her vexatious court applications. He was of the view that forcing a sale was the only way to finally end these vexatious proceedings.

[Mr.HappySilp]

Can't we just force her out sell her house and never ever allow her to appeal in court with this issue again...

[6o4__boi]

i guess you could say, they couldn't just let them Bea....



yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[Traum]

It's "only" at the appeal court right now. They can still take it up to the supreme court for another go. :failed:

[xghgh]

http://financenot.com/image/images/23.gifWhat was the original argument about? http://financenot.com/image/images/51.gif

[inv4zn]

^It's on Page 1.

They owned multiple vehicles, kept parking in places they shouldn't (visitors, other people's stalls), etc.

Strata fined them, they sued, rinse and repeat.

It'll only end up at the supreme court if they decide to hear the case and deem the case important in setting precedent. I think in this case, it's pretty clear to everyone that they're just trying to abuse the system and wasting everyone's time and money
