Exercise 6
Weaver and J. E. Jordan executed a warranty deed of 50 acres to Daniel and Pearline Dallinga. The deed contained restrictive covenants prohibiting commercial enterprise or enterprise of any kind on the property and was signed by Weaver and Jordan, but not by the Dallingas. There were several subsequent conveyances of the property until Jeremiah 29:11 Inc. became the owner. None of these conveyances referenced the restrictions of the Jordans' deed. Jeremiah used the property as a leadership-training center for pastors and leaders of nonprofit corporations and as a Boy Scout camp. Ernest Douglas and Leslie Seifert owned adjacent property formerly owned by the Jordans and alleged that Jeremiah's use violated the commercial enterprise restriction. Jeremiah alleged that it was not limited by the Jordans' restrictions because they had not signed the original deed, and the restrictions were not in subsequent deeds. Did the restrictive covenants apply to Jeremiah?
