Nancy Matayer Bowen<\/strong><\/a> and her husband — who’s been arrested, accused of murdering her — were locked in a legal battle with their homeowners association months before the Coral Springs, Florida vice mayor was slain, TMZ has learned.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

According to court docs obtained by TMZ, Nancy and Stephen<\/strong><\/a> were sued in November 2025 by their homeowners association.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

The HOA claimed the couple defaulted on certain fees and asked for permission to foreclose on the home to collect.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n


\n<\/p>\n

\n

According to the filing, the couple owed $3,710.25 in unpaid fees and had refused to pay. The suit was later voluntarily dismissed in January 2026, months before Stephen allegedly fatally shot the politician.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

As TMZ previously reported, Stephen was arrested<\/strong><\/a> last week after cops say they found Nancy’s body inside their Florida home. He was booked on charges of first-degree murder and tampering with or fabricating physical evidence.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

According to the police report, Stephen’s uncle was the one who called cops to tell them Stephen had confessed to the murder.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
