Statement of Case:
In this case, Plaintiffs are residents at a senior independent living facility called The Reserve on Walnut Creek. Plaintiffs claim that their agreements with The Reserve are so one-sided and unfair as to render the agreements unconscionable. Plaintiffs seek a declaration that the agreements are unenforceable and a refund of certain money paid to The Reserve. Plaintiffs also claim that The Reserve breached its fiduciary duties to Plaintiffs by putting its interests above those of Plaintiffs and taking actions detrimental to Plaintiffs’ investment in The Reserve. The Reserve denies the Plaintiffs’ claims in their entirety.
