Fact issue found

July 8, 2018

The Fifth Court found a sufficient fact issue to reverse a summary judgment in 6200 GP LLC v. Multi Service Corp., in which an affiant’s testimony was found not to be conclusory when:

  • his testimony about the relevant assignment was not conclusory, when his affidavit explained his roles in the businesses, his relationship to the transaction, and the business structure relevant to the transaction;
  • an objection that the testimony “cite[d] no, let alone contemporaneous facts or document evidencing the alleged transactions or Prime’s intent” was not well-taken, since “[a] person may testify to a sale and assignment without providing any documentary evidence,” and the testimony as in fact supported by the witness’s understanding of “journal entries and [a] tax work sheet.”

No. 05-16-01491-CV (June 28, 2018) (mem.op.)
