BROWN v. HURLEY.
45491.
HALL, Presiding Judge.
Action to recover earnest money. Houston Superior Court. Before Judge Culpepper.
In a suit for the return of earnest money, defendant builder appeals from the denial of his motion for summary judgment.
Defendant is relying upon a clause in a contract made in November which provides for the forfeiture of the earnest money in the event of a repudiation or anticipatory breach by the buyer. Assuming without deciding that the buyer did repudiate this contract, there is a genuine issue on several material facts concerning the existence and breach of a prior, unrescinded contract between these parties and the fraudulent procurement of the November contract.
The trial court did not err in denying defendant's motion for summary judgment.
Aultman, Hulbert, Buice & Cowart, Tom W. Daniel, Lawrence C. Walker, Jr., for appellee.
Spencer & Smith, Henry G. Smith, Jr., for appellant.
SUBMITTED SEPTEMBER 15, 1970 -- DECIDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1970.
