Annotations

JUDICIAL DECISIONS Manufactured home. - Trial court did not err in enjoining the owner from building a manufactured home on a permanent foundation at a site for residential development as the home unquestionably met the description of a

modular home and, therefore, the owner violated the restrictive covenant that prohibited the construction of modular homes in that residential area. Vester v. Banks, 257 Ga. App. 26, 570 S.E.2d 586, 2002 Ga. App. LEXIS 1532 (2002).
