As stated in my post above I have been awarded a costs order at NCAT.
Last Friday I received a notice of an EGM to be convened shortly (despite there being an AGM due any day now). The only matter on the agenda at the EGM is for the OC to vote either to pay my costs, or to engage a Strata Lawyer in order to appeal the decision and related costs order that was granted in my favour.
Seeing as I, being the successful party am not to be included in contributing financially to any special levy raised in relation to this matter I am questioning why I was sent the meeting notice? The meeting notice did not state that I am not a contributing party to the levy.
I know as part of the OC I’m entitled to attend an EGM, but would have thought that because this EGM is solely to discuss this one matter of which I am the opposing party, having me attend is counter intuitive, is the meeting not legally privileged?
Of course I don’t mind attending the EGM to see what is discussed, but it would be obvious as to how I would vote. I don’t want to take the time to turn up at the meeting just to be told I can’t take part. Can someone please give me their opinion on this?
