- Event Resulted: Hearing on Motion For Endorsement Of A Memorandum Of Lis Pendens ("the Lis Pendens Motion") scheduled on: 05/08/2023 11:15 AM Has been: Held via video. Attorneys Alan E. Lipkind and Peter M. Vetere appeared for plaintiff and Attorney Sarah A. Turano-Flores appeared for defendant Christine Barker. Defendant H. Bradford Rose appeared pro se but indicated that Attorney Turano-Flores would be appearing on his behalf. The court noted that, while the Lis Pendens Motion was unopposed, the court would only allow it as to the property actually in dispute. Accordingly, Attorney Vetere should prepare a sketch plan of that area and share it with Attorney Turano-Flores. Once the parties have agreed on the sketch plan, it will be attached to the endorsement of the memorandum of lis pendens for recording at the Registry of Deeds. The court also raised the issue of whether other parties might need to be joined, as the drawing of disputed boundary lines in this case may affect other harbor-front owners in Provincetown. Counsel should be prepared to address this issue at the Case Management Conference on May 23, 2023 at 9:30 a.m. The court referred counsel to the case of Johnson v. Town of Nantucket, 5 LCR 213 (1997) (Kilborn, C.J.) for guidance. Finally, the court declined to take action on Plaintiff's Motion to Consolidate Miscellaneous Case and S-petition Case, docketed on April 25, 2023, but will notify the Chief Title Examiner of the relationship between that case and this.

Vetere appeared for plaintiff, Attorneys Sarah Turano-Flores and Matthew Connolly appeared for the private defendants and Attorney Kendra Kinscherf appeared for the Commonwealth. Attorney Kinscherf indicated that she would file a formal notice of appearance in this case. After discussion with the court, Attorney Lipkind stated that he would file a motion to amend the complaint to add the Commonwealth as a party and add additional facts to the complaint. Attorney Turano-Flores stated that it is her position that the issue contemplated in this case has been previously adjudicated in the earlier Land Court registration case concerning the property and that she therefore anticipates filing a renewed motion to dismiss once all the registration case materials have been received from the court. The court directed Attorney Turano-Flores to share the materials that she currently has in her possession with the other parties, with the outstanding materials to be shared when they have been received. The court scheduled a deadline of August 4, 2023 for Attorney Lipkind to file a motion to amend the complaint, with any opposition (including on the ground of futility) due by September 8, 2023. Any reply thereto is due by September 22, 2023. The court further scheduled a hearing on the motion to amend the complaint for November 8, 2023 at 2:00 p.m., to be held via videoconference.
