Jasmine Heights Homeowners Association has filed a lawsuit against a local resident, seeking to enforce payment of overdue fees and foreclose on a property. The complaint was filed in the District Court of Harris County, Texas, on March 13, 2025, against Pablo Jose Moreno Rojas. The association alleges that Rojas has failed to pay mandatory maintenance fees and special assessments tied to his property within the Jasmine Heights community.
The case centers around allegations of breach of contract by Rojas, who is accused of not fulfilling his financial obligations as outlined in the restrictive covenants governing properties in Jasmine Heights. According to the homeowners association, these covenants were established by the original developers and are legally binding for all property owners within the subdivision. The plaintiff claims that Rojas's failure to pay these fees violates these covenants and seeks judicial intervention to recover the owed amounts.
The homeowners association is pursuing several forms of relief from the court. They are requesting monetary compensation for unpaid fees totaling $254 or less, along with interest and attorney fees. Additionally, they seek non-monetary relief in the form of foreclosure on Rojas's property to satisfy the debt secured by a vendor’s lien. The association argues that this lien grants them legal authority to foreclose if payments are not made.
In their filing, Jasmine Heights Homeowners Association outlines their right under Texas law to recover attorney fees incurred while pursuing this legal action. They assert that all necessary conditions precedent have been met and request an order for foreclosure if further maintenance fees become due before judgment is rendered. The plaintiff also seeks an order allowing them to purchase the property at auction should it come to sale.
Representing Jasmine Heights Homeowners Association is Chris Are from Porter Law Firm based in Houston, Texas. The case is presided over by Judge Monica Jackson under Case ID 2025-17188 in Harris County's 55th Judicial District Court.
