Description
This appeal involves a contract dispute arising from a dredging operation at a dock at the port of Houston. De-Kaizered, Inc. hired Continental Dredging, Inc. to dredge to a uniform depth of thirty-six feet in front of its dock in the Houston ship channel. Continental sued De-Kaizered to compel payment pursuant to the contract. De-Kaizered alleged Continental breached the agreement, breached a warranty, denied liability under the contract, and countersued under the Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA). The jury awarded Continental contract damages of $123,556.00, offset by $56,485.00 awarded De-Kaizered under the DTPA for Continental's misrepresentations and $10,000.00 awarded De-Kaizered for Continental's breach of warranty, for a net recovery by Continental of $57,071.00. Continental was also awarded $49,422.00 in attorney's fees.
