C.A.R. Message: Legal Update

We want to inform you that the legal action C.A.R. brought in September 2012 against REALTOR® member Andrea Geller is now over. The following joint statement has been issued by Ms. Geller, the Chicago Association of REALTORS®, and Virginia “Ginger” Downs, CEO, Chicago Association of REALTORS®: During the course of discovery in the legal action filed by the Association, the parties undertook extensive discovery and the Association provided extensive and detailed financial records for the Association and related entities. The review of these records demonstrated that there was no mismanagement, improprieties, or irregularities, and that any statement or implication to the contrary was not accurate. Due to this acknowledgment, the parties have agreed to discontinue the legal action. We thank you for your patience and understanding during this time. Sincerely, Hugh Rider President, Chicago Association of REALTORS®
