V.

TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF INSURANCE and KELLEY LIESMAN a/k/a KELLEY SUE LIESMAN a/k/a KELLEY S. MENEFEE, Appellees

On Appeal from the 270th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 01-44960

M E M O R A N D U M O P I N I O N

Appellant sued the Texas Department of Insurance (ADepartment@) and its investigator, Kelley Menefee (AMenefee@), alleging defamation. The trial court granted a summary judgment motion in favor of the Department and Menefee. Appellant, representing himself pro se, presents six issues for review that can be summarized as two contentions, namely, the trial court=s judgment should be reversed because (1) genuine issues of material fact were raised regarding the appellees= affirmative defenses of substantial truth and lack of injury, and (2) the judgment is founded upon defective summary judgment evidence.

For the same reasons articulated today by this court in Adi v. Prudential Prop. & Cas. Ins. Co. of Am., No. 14-01-01001-CV (Tex. App.CHouston [14th Dist.] Dec. 11, 2003, n. pet. h.), we affirm the trial court=s judgment.
