APPEAL FROM THE 126TH DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY BEFORE JUSTICES BAKER, KELLY, AND SMITH AFFIRMED IN PART; REVERSED AND REMANDED IN PART – OPINION BY JUSTICE BAKER

This is an appeal from the Amended Order on Cross Motions for Summary Judgment signed by

the trial court on December 13, 2019, and from the Order on Defendants’ Motion for Award of

Attorney’s Fees signed by the trial court on June 24, 2022. Having reviewed the record and

the parties’ arguments, the Court holds that there was no reversible error in the trial court’s

Amended Order on Cross Motions for Summary Judgment, and we affirm that order. The Court

further holds that there was no reversible error in the trial court’s Order on Defendants’ Motions

for Award of Attorney’s Fees, except for the portion awarding Newcastle Management Trust and

Jerry Landers contingent appellate attorney’s fees, which portion we reverse. Therefore, the

Court affirms in part the trial court’s Order on Defendants’ Motions for Award of Attorney’s Fees, except for the portion awarding Newcastle Management Trust and Jerry Landers

contingent appellate attorney’s fees, which portion we reverse. This Court remands the case to

the trial court for redetermination of the issue of Newcastle’s and Lander’s contingent appellate

attorney’s fees in accordance with this opinion. Uptown Cars, Inc. shall pay all costs relating to

this appeal, both in this Court and in the court below.
