Bette & Cring, LLC v. Brandle Meadows, LLC

Petitioner, a construction manager, sought to compel respondent to provide a verified statement regarding trust funds for a construction project under Lien Law article 3-A, claiming the initial statement was deficient. The Supreme Court dismissed the petition, citing referral of the main contractual dispute to arbitration. On appeal, the court ruled that the arbitration did not negate the respondent's obligation to provide a compliant verified statement. The court found respondent's provided statement insufficient across multiple categories required by Lien Law § 75 (3). Consequently, the appeal court reversed the Supreme Court's order, denied respondent's motion to dismiss the appeal, granted the petition, and directed the respondent to furnish a compliant verified statement.

Rachael Braud v. Nathan Lane Robert

The First District of Texas at Houston issued an order concerning appellant Rachael Braud's failure to make financial arrangements for the reporter's record or properly file a statement of indigence as required by Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 145(c). Despite previous directives, Braud had not submitted the necessary documentation in the trial court to prove her inability to afford court costs. Consequently, the court ordered her to file either a Statement of Inability or an amended affidavit of indigence in the trial court within 20 days, along with proof of filing. The order warns that non-compliance may lead to the dismissal of her appeal under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.3, referencing a similar dismissal in Manley v. Love’s Travel Stop.
