and now the courts are saying “fuck you”

It's one Court and unsurprisingly it's the Court located right there in town. I strongly suspect that the Third Court of Appeals is going to have a different take on this mess.

At least where I live you can't wash away a deed restriction like this by transferring the property a couple times.

It is wild to me that this wasn't handled elsewhere to begin with. There is no way to at least somewhat guarantee a fair process with this massive potential for conflict of interest.
