In Dartex Holdings Corp. v. Royalty Lending II, Ltd., the Dallas Court of Appeals held that an affidavit filed to domesticate a foreign judgment under the UEFJA was facially deficient because it did not show the affiant’s personal knowledge. The attorney who signed the affidavit merely identified her role, recited addresses, and summarized the judgment without stating any basis for knowing those facts. The Court thus reversed and rendered, denying domestication, while allowing a compliant refiling. No. 05-24-00984-CV, Sept. 15, 2025
