Plaintiffs in short-term rental lawsuit ask judge to sanction defendant company

LOGAN — After 20 homeowners in a Green Township housing subdivision filed a lawsuit against a Florida company for buying a home there and turning it into a short-term rental, the company responded with a countersuit, alleging that the plaintiffs were interfering with its attempts to sell the property. Now the plaintiffs from Brad-Mer Acres have fired back with a motion asking a judge to dismiss the counterclaim, and to sanction the defendant company for “frivolous conduct.” In filing the countersuit, the motion alleges, defendant Palm Side Paradise LLC (PSP) is trying to “bully” the homeowners. “Because the counterclaim is not warranted under existing law and serves only to increase the cost of this litigation, Plaintiffs also request a hearing on sanctions,” the motion states. In August 2024 PSP bought a five-bedroom house in the subdivision, turned it into a short-term rental (STR) for up to 16 guests, and began marketing it on websites such as Airbnb.com and VRBO.com. In response, 10 residents of the subdivision filed a lawsuit in Hocking County Common Pleas Court, in which they argued that using the house as an STR violates Brad-Mer’s restrictive covenants. They also claimed that the rental was creating a nuisance.

CHILLICOTHE — In 1992, Stacey Gordon graduated as one of the top students in her class from Chillicothe High School. Now, she is a published author celebrating the release of her new book, "The Pearl Farmers." Gordon grew up in Chillicothe before attending Ohio University. She said creative fiction writing has always been something she enjoyed in and out of school. "My lifelong dream has been to write a novel," said Gordon. After graduating, Gordon started working for magazines and quickly started working with organizations as they transitioned into the online era. This led to her working in the tech field, she is currently employed by Meta and has previously worked for Google. When she worked for a magazine, Gordon covered the cultured pearl jewelry industry, where she traveled the world and got to know those involved in the trade. Despite a shift in her career, Gordon said she still had all of this knowledge from her reporting days "rattling around" in her head. She put this knowledge to use when she started her book in 2010. She would continue to work on the project for many years before finally hunkering down and forcing herself to complete the first draft
