Can an HOA get a restraining order to prevent a non-resident from entering the HOA?
We have a couple in their 60s who have a son that has been a professional car thief for over 20 years, and they have no ability to influence his criminal behavior. He has several felony convictions for car thefts and other crimes. Every time he is released from jail, he comes and stays with his parents. When he does, he brings crime and other criminals into the HOA. On video we have him bringing stolen cars and other items to the HOA and storing those stolen items at his parents. His parents no longer ask him questions about the items because they do not want to know the details, but after 20+ years, they see it 100s of times and know everything he brings home is stolen.
Local police have been informed many times and provided with video security footage, but the cycle keeps happening in our community because the parents provide him with a place to stay when out of jail, and he then uses their home as a base of his criminal operation. The only time we get relief is when he is in jail\prison.
If possible, we want to get a restraining order to prevent him from being on HOA property, which may force local police to act and arrest him for violating the restraining order. Currently, police take no action unless he is caught in the act of committing a crime (ie driving a stolen car).
