One of the founders of an Ohio nudist resort has been ordered to pay rent while a legal dispute makes its way through the courts.

Board members at Paradise Resort in Coleraine say that David Weber has spent resort money for his own purposes and tried to get a couple who were among the original group to turn their shares over to him when they resigned, the Cincinnati Enquirer reported. They say he is now, in effect, a squatter on their property.

Weber, who filed the original suit in January claiming that the board was trying to drive him out, says that he has a lifetime right to live at the resort. The board filed a countersuit.

After a hearing Friday, a judge in Cincinnati ordered Weber to pay $375 a month plus utilities in rent. In return he is to be allowed to use the pool and all other facilities at the 35-acre resort.
