Cal. Civ. Code § 38-12-219
Home owners' and landlords' rights.
Operative Text
(1) Every home owner and landlord has a private right of action pursuant to section 38-12-203 or 38-12-220 to enforce the following: (a) Protection from abuse or disregard of state or local law by the landlord and home owners. Abuse or disregard of state or local law includes, but is not limited to: (I) Oral or written statements that threaten eviction of a home owner for violations that are not grounds to terminate a tenancy under section 38-12-203; (II) Misleading a home owner about the home owner's obligation to sign a new lease or agreement; or (III) Taking, possessing, or depriving a home owner or resident of his or her property or property rights without due process of law, including the opportunity for a judicial or administrative hearing. (b) Peaceful enjoyment of the home owner's mobile home space, free from unreasonable, arbitrary, or capricious rules and enforcement thereof; and (c) Tenancy free from harassment or frivolous lawsuits by the landlord and home owners. (2) The rights and obligations set forth in subsections (1)(a)(III), (1)(b), and (1)(c) of this section are not subject to enforcement through the "Mobile Home Park Act Dispute Resolution and Enforcement Program" created in part 11 of this article 12.
Colorado Revised Statutes § 38-12-219 establishes that both mobile home park landlords and home owners hold a private right of action to enforce certain protections within mobile home parks. These protections cover freedom from abuse or disregard of state or local law—such as unlawful eviction threats, misleading statements about lease obligations, or deprivation of property without due process—as well as the right to peaceful enjoyment of one's space and freedom from harassment or frivolous lawsuits. Notably, some of these rights, specifically those under subsections (1)(a)(III), (1)(b), and (1)(c), cannot be enforced through the Mobile Home Park Act Dispute Resolution and Enforcement Program and must instead be pursued through other legal channels.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Colo. Rev. Stat. § 38-12-219, compliant mobile home park operators generally avoid making oral or written threats of eviction that lack legal grounds, refrain from misleading home owners about their lease obligations, and ensure that any action affecting a home owner's property rights is accompanied by proper due process. Operators also typically maintain community rules that are reasonable, consistently applied, and free from arbitrary or capricious enforcement. Because this provision grants home owners a private right of action, park operators who disregard these standards may face civil litigation initiated directly by home owners or other landlords.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Colo. Rev. Stat. § 38-12-219 gives mobile home park residents enforceable rights against unlawful eviction threats, misleading lease communications, deprivation of property without due process, unreasonable or arbitrarily enforced park rules, and landlord harassment or frivolous lawsuits. Home owners can pursue these rights through a private right of action under § 38-12-203 or § 38-12-220, though it is important to note that rights under subsections (1)(a)(III), (1)(b), and (1)(c) are not available through the Mobile Home Park Act Dispute Resolution and Enforcement Program. Residents seeking to understand their options may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization or legal aid provider familiar with Colorado mobile home park law.
