Here is a basic definition of "estoppel."
Estoppel is a legal doctrine that prevents a person from adopting a position, action, or attitude, asserting a fact or a right, or prevents one from denying a fact inconsistent with an earlier position if it would result in an injury to someone else.
There are three types of estoppel and the question is not really specific enough to render a more exact answer.
Estoppel by representation occurs when one party makes a false statement or representation that another party relies on to their detriment. Estoppel by negligence, on the other hand, arises when a party fails to exercise due diligence or care in a situation and the other party suffers harm as a result. In estoppel by negligence, the focus is on the negligent actions or inactions of the party rather than a deliberate misrepresentation.
Yes, an HOA can refuse to issue an estoppel letter if certain conditions are not met. These conditions typically include unpaid fees or violations of HOA rules. It's important to review the HOA's governing documents to understand the specific circumstances under which they may withhold an estoppel letter.
Exceptions to collateral estoppel include when the party against whom the doctrine is being invoked did not have a full and fair opportunity to litigate the issue in the previous action, or when there is new evidence that was not available in the previous action. Additionally, collateral estoppel may not apply if the issue in question is of public importance and should be reexamined for public policy reasons.
Collateral estoppel may still apply in subsequent cases even if a default judgment was entered in a prior case on the same issues. However, the court will need to determine if the default judgment resulted from a deliberate decision not to contest the issues, which could impact the application of collateral estoppel.
The difference between statutory and non statutory rights is that one is supplied by the government and the other one isn't. Statutory rights are bestowed by particular government to governed people and are relative to specific cultures and governments
Yeah it's estoppel, whether it be collateral estoppel or any other estoppel, it is estoppel, although estoppel and double jeopardy are synonymous. In civil matter, it's called "res judicata". That's civil double jeopardy. A case dismissed with prejudice or found that the defendant is liable will result in res judicata.
The estoppel certificate is typically signed by the party who is providing the certificate. For example, if a tenant is providing the estoppel certificate to a landlord, the tenant would sign the certificate.

The correct term is estoppel letter. An estoppel letter is prepared and signed by the HOA that states any common charges or special fees that are due on a unit up through a certain, stated date. The party that requested it can rely on the amounts owed and the HOA is legally bound by the amounts listed. HOAs do charge a fee for providing estoppel letters.
Estoppel is a legal principle that prevents a person from arguing something contrary to a claim they previously made or accepted as true, especially if doing so would harm another party who relied on the original claim. It aims to uphold fairness and prevent inconsistency in legal proceedings. There are various forms of estoppel, including equitable estoppel and promissory estoppel, each addressing different scenarios where reliance on a statement or action is at stake. Essentially, estoppel serves to protect the integrity of legal agreements and representations.
