A Superior Court judge has issued his final order in the Ahwatukee Lakes Golf Course case and directed the current and former owners to pay more than $170,000 in fees to the lawyer who won the case.
Judge John Hannah last week said The True Life Companies must pay attorney Tim Barnes about $130,000 and former owner Wilson Gee another $42,000 for his work in representing Ahwatukee Lakes residents Linda Swain and Eileen Breslin in their four-year fight to have the defunct 101-acre site restored as a golf course.
Hannah also ruled that True Life “breached the covenant of good faith and fair dealing implied in the 1992 Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions” governing the use of the site, which was shut down in 2013 by Gee.
