We purchased our condo in 2012 and want to screen in our back deck which is partially a common area.

There is a "sunroom" built on common area of another condo.

I was voted down at a meeting because it is against the bylaws. They will not discuss with me why another unit was able to close theirs in after the bylaws were in effect.

Do I have legal recourse?
