TITLE 2: NATURAL RESOURCES
DIVISION 6: UNIFORM CONDOMINIUM ACT
§ 6709. Substantial Compliance. The creation of a Constitutional exception for ownership of condominium units above the first floor by persons not of Northern Marianas descent represents a delicate balancing of competing interests in maintaining exclusive Northern Marianas descent ownership of real property interests, and it is the will of the legislature that the interests of a declarant, purchaser or unit owner of an Article XII condominium shall not be prejudiced or void where there has been substantial compliance with the requirements for the creation, management and sale of the condominium or where any technical error may be reasonably cured, including the use of the court’s equitable powers and remedies. The rights provided by this Chapter shall be liberally administered to the end that rights and interests of a good faith, bona fide owner or purchaser of an Article XII condominium unit are not made void by instruments or actions that might be reformed to achieve a just result.
