For a violation or a breach of any of these restrictive covenants by a person owning a

ALTERMAn FARMS SUBDIVISION ASSOCIATION, or by virtue of any judicial proceeding,
lot owner, or any of them severally, shall have the right to proceed in a judicial action

and to prevent the continued or successive violation or breach of any of them and shall

restrictions or remaining portions of a restriction, all of which shall remain in full force
and effect.
