HOA has 5 board members which appointed by president. No elections at all. Is that legal? I have been asked for the election and no board member answers.

You frustration is perfectly understandable. Your attorney may be frustrated also. Unfortunately, this sort of thing happens in cases all the time. You might want to discuss with your lawyer giving the opposing side a deadline to complete or otherwise there is no settlement.

Is it possible to prevent the entire case getting skewed in the wrong direction of playing character reference games versus trying the actual matter?

Bringing up issues like this is typical.
There are ways to exclude the evidence and this would probably not be admissible at trial.
But it not matter. Confronting the fact and dealing with it can strengthen your case in the hands of a good attorney.

In some ways the case, though a bit of a niche, is comparably easy & less time consuming- overall.

It certainly sounds like you may have a malpractice case against your former attorney for blowing the product liability
statute of limitations, but if the statute has run on the defective ladder case you will not be able to sue the manufacturer/distributor/retailer for the defect.
