Class action suit filed against mobile home park
A restraint of trade suit for 15 million dollars and an injunction was filed in Cleveland District Federal Court last week against Kenneth Sommer, owner of Sommer's Mobile Sales Inc. and Pikewood Manor Inc. Leslie and Mary Jameson and others sue on behalf of mobile home owners alleging an unlawful tie between sale of homes and space leases. The Jamesons previously won a related Lorain County case in May, with Judge Mikus ruling that restricting sales to the park agency is illegal. The federal case, before Judge Krupansky, follows a broader dispute echoed by mobile home residents like Skip Oehme, who notes 650 homes exist in Columbia Trailer Park and residents are forming a representative group.
