Fourth Court of Appeals District
San Antonio Division
BRADLEY AERY, et al.,
Appellants,
vs.
HOSKINS, INC., et al.,
Appellees,
FROM THE 36™ JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF MCMULLEN
COUNTY, TEXAS
BRENT C. HOSKINS' JOINDER IN BRIEF OF
APPELLEES C. CLIFTON HOSKINS AND HOSKINS, INC.
TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT:
COMES NOW Appellee Brent C. Hoskins and presents his joinder in Brief
of Appellees C. Clifton Hoskins and Hoskins, Inc. demonstrating that the trial
court correctly granted summary judgment on the dispositive legal issue in this
case.
Appellee Brent C. Hoskins joins in the Brief of Appellees Cliff Hoskins and
Hoskins, Inc. as the trial court ordered that the February 9, 1966 Deed from Sam E.
Quinn to James L. House conveying the lands of the 623.93-acre Quinn Tract (Vol.
95, pg. 451) (the "House Deed") did not convey Same E. Quinn's non-participating
royalty interests in the Ray Tract and Hoskins Tract, originally established and
described in that certain November 7, 1963 Partition and Royalty Deed (Vol. 95,
pg. 357) and subsequently conveyed to Hazel Hoskins and L.R. Hoskins by that
certain February 11, 1966 Deed from Sam E. Quinn to L. R. Hoskins and Hazel
Hoskins conveying his non-participating royalty interest in the Ray Tract and
Hoskins Tract should be upheld.
Wherefore, Appellee Brent C. Hoskins respectfully requests that this Court
affirm the judgment of the district court and that he have such further relief to
which he is entitled.
Respectfully submitted,
