Trayvon Martin Family Could Target Homeowners Association
with Lawsuit Over its Neighborhood Watch

The Retreat at Twin Lakes could be sued should George Zimmerman be protected by Stand Your Ground law

SANFORD, Fla. If Trayvon Martins family sues over his death, they might not target George Zimmerman but instead the homeowners association of the neighborhood where the shooting happened and Zimmerman lived.

.

Thats because if Zimmermans claim that he shot the unarmed 17-year-old in self-defense is upheld by prosecutors, a judge or a jury, Floridas so-called stand your ground law would protect him from a lawsuit. But his clearance or acquittal wouldnt stop Martins parents from suing The Retreat at Twin Lakes homeowners association and its insurance policies and assets would make it a much more lucrative target than Zimmerman, even if he is eventually convicted of a crime.

.

Plus, lawyers say, Exhibit A would be a newsletter sent by the association to residents in February, the same month as the shooting. It said Zimmerman was the go-to person for residents who had been the victims of a crime.

.

Under the heading Neighborhood Watch, the newsletters message recommended that residents first call police and then please contact our Captain, George Zimmerman ... so he can be aware and help address the issue with other residents.

.

That seeming endorsement of Zimmerman exposes the 7-year-old association to possible legal action by Martins parents, homeowners association attorneys said.

.

Its almost like if you give your son the keys to a brand new Corvette when he turns 16 and he gets in an accident, said Roberto Blanch, a South Florida attorney who specializes in homeowners associations. You may be seen as enabling the occurrence or the loss.
