Gonzales v. American Title Company of Houston

Appellants, Carlos Gonzales and Janet R. Jones (the borrowers), filed suit seeking an injunction to prevent foreclosure on their home and for damages against Resource Bancshares Mortgage Group (RBMG), Woodforest Bancshares, Inc. (Woodforest) and American Title Company of Houston (American Title). American Title counterclaimed for attorneys fees and costs. The trial court granted summary judgment motions in favor of RBMG, Woodforest and American Title on the borrowers claims and granted the borrowers motion for summary judgment denying American Titles counterclaim. The borrowers claim the trial court erred in rendering the summary judgments against them because of fact issues involved in all of their claims. American Title claims the trial court erred in granting a summary judgment for the borrowers because American Title was entitled to its attorneys fees and costs as a matter of law. We affirm.
