Buffington v. T.O.E. Enterprises

Chief Justice TOAL:

Respondents filed an action seeking a declaratory judgment that in using their land for commercial purposes, Petitioners were acting in violation of the restrictive covenants. The trial court found that Petitioners were in violation of the covenants and issued an injunction prohibiting Petitioners from using two lots for commercial purposes. The court of appeals affirmed, Buffington v. T.O.E. Enters., Op. No.2007-UP-252 (S.C. Ct.App. filed May 24, 2007), and this Court granted a writ of certiorari to review that decision.
