Re: Manhattan Club Lawsuit (by Chris V.):

eileenm, i'm no attorney or "legal eagle" but i wouldn't pay the manhattan club a penny in maintenance fees until the current lawsuit per the NYSAG is settled, and we have some legal ground to stand on. HOWEVER, i believe, since you're a deeded owner of a share or shares in TMC, you MUST PAY YOUR CITY/STATE TAX ON YOUR PROPERTY. ALSO, DO NOT SIGN AND SEND ANY PAPERS TO THE PRINCIPALS OF THE MANHATTAN CLUB INCLUDING ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES ( THERE ARE PROBABLY MANY IF TMC'S COVERT HOLDINGS THAT MAY LOOK LEGAL TO YOU. I WOULD PUT NOTHING, LEGAL OR ILLEGAL PAST IAN BRUCE EICHNER.

hope this opinion proves helpful. keep in touch.

I could use some guidance here. We are behind in our timeshare charges and taxes (3 years) with the Manhattan Club. We have finished paying off for this property that we cannot use. The company is offering an "amnesty" if we agree to lose the three years of timeshare weeks. We would begin paying for the $2,200 in charges for next year. We just want out of this whole mess. I am not sure what we should do. They sent us a bunch of forms that look like a mortgage signing that need to be notarized and sent back to them within a week. If there is a class action suit going on here, I would like to find out more about it.
