Club West Golf Course’s restoration has been imperiled again after its former owner asked federal bankruptcy court to reinstate his petition and block Wilson Gee from taking control of the site.
In a petition filed with the court on Friday, the Inter Tribal Golf Association and its CEO Richard Breuninger accused Gee of foreclosing on the course Sept. 4 despite “deep discussions” with what they claimed was a new owner of the association to hold off on the trustee sale.
ITGA also said a clerical mix-up caused its failure to file a mandatory list of creditors. A bankruptcy court judge cited that failure in dismissing ITGA’s petition and allowing the foreclosure to proceed.
Gee said he’s mystified by the latest claims and expressed concern that the latest legal maneuver will jeopardize his preparations to have the course ready for the golfing season.
