Diamond Resorts, International

RE: Contract
Anne Stewart:
I would appreciate that Diamond Resorts, International, take possession of the condominium that I have interest in at Grand Beach Resort Condominiums in lieu of yearly fees due. I would relinquish any interest that I have. I have the deed and it is in my possession. Unfortunately, there is a second name on that deed.
Gale L. Smith-Knight (whatever her last name is now) is a co-owner of that timeshare and her name appears on the deed. A divorce settlement has nothing to do with and is not binding on Diamond Resorts and / or the Grand Beach Resort Condominium Association. However, Ms. Smith (or whatever her name is now) is a legal co-owner of that timeshare at this time and is equally responsible for yearly fees. I have received no legal notice that she has attempted to have her name removed from the deed from either her, Diamond Resorts, or Grand Beach Condominium Association. I have not received any notice that she has been billed also and nothing that would indicate that she has been legally relieved of responsibility of any debt owed to the Grand Beach Resort Condominium Association.
It would appear to me that there has been and continues to be a bias based on gender by The Grand Beach Condominium Association in their billing practices and their referral to a legal practice to collect fees owed. It would appear to me also that Shapiro and Fishman are willing participants in bias based on gender as the collection notice was sent to me, not Gale Smith at her legal address, or to both of us at our respective legal address.
Since Diamond Resorts and Sunterra are within the
Since I no longer want anything to do with the time-share, I figure that the choices that Diamond Resorts and Sunterra have are to send Ms. Smith a quick title so she can legally remove her name from the title/deed and Diamond Industries can buy the time-share from me minus any moneys owed.
I have several other issues with Diamond Resorts /
Enclosed is a Cashiers check for 1,000.00. That amount should be ample for my responsibility. I am certain that you will take equal action against Ms. Smith as she is a co-owner of that condominium. I would also expect that the 30 days extension would be applied since both parties are equally responsible for that bill. Each party is a separate entity.
