Vasiliky A. Roumel v. Colonial Village Shopping Center LC; Kathryn V.A. Roumel; Constantine A. Roumel; Wilma Wolfe Roumel; and Kathryn V.A. Roumel, trustee of the Wilma W. Roumel revocable trust
The Roumels are members of Colonial Village Shopping Center in Arlington, founded March 5, 1997, by Wilma Roumel, who had 51% of the company, with each of the others holding 16.33%. Under the operating agreement, funds available for distribution shall be allocated and distributed in respect to their respective interest at such time as the manager shall determine, and approval of members is necessary to take various actions. Plaintiff says that over time, the company has made distributions, undocumented loans and unreimbursed advances to various members of the company, disproportionately in favor of defendants Wilma, Kathryn and Constantine. As a result, plaintiff says, as of Sept. 12, 2012, ownership balances of members are Wilma, 6.18%; plaintiff, 52.91%; Constantine, 37.13%, and Kathryn 3.78%, although defendants say that plaintiff, Constantine and Kathryn each have 30% of company, and Wilma, 10%. Plaintiff seeks declaratory judgment that members’ respective interests are as plaintiff states above; that proposed amendments to the company are not effective or enforceable; and that Kathryn Roumel be expelled from the company, among other relief.
