Human Power of N Company, Appellant

v.

Anthony Turturro, Appellee

APPEAL FROM THE 261ST DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY BEFORE JUSTICES BAKER, SMITH, AND THEOFANIS REVERSED AND RENDERED IN PART; REMANDED IN PART – OPINION BY JUSTICE BAKER

This is an appeal from the interlocutory order denying appellant’s motion to dismiss signed by the

trial court on April 29, 2024. Having reviewed the record and the parties’ arguments, the Court

holds that there was reversible error in the order. Therefore, the Court reverses the trial court’s

interlocutory order and renders judgment dismissing with prejudice appellee’s counterclaims for

abuse of process and malicious prosecution. The Court further remands the case to the trial

court for a determination of the amount of attorney’s fees, costs, and sanctions to which appellant

is entitled. Appellee shall pay all costs relating to this appeal, both in this Court and in the

court below.
