No. 13-50458

Defendants-Appellees. This action, originally filed in state court and removed 

therefrom, involved the foreclosure on their residence in Cedar Park, Texas. 

We affirm.

Like the district court before us, we have reviewed the Motion to Dismiss 

filed by Defendants-Appellants, the response of the Trevarthens, and the reply 

thereto of Defendants-Appellants, as well as the appellate briefs of the parties 

and the record on appeal. As a result, we are satisfied that the district court 

nailed this one precisely in the concluding paragraph of its Order of April 26, 

2013. After noting that this is “not the first time Grant Trevarthen has 

appeared before this Court in frivolous foreclosure litigation” and after 

identifying prior cases of that ilk, the court concluded that “the spurious 

allegations and baseless causes of action asserted indicate this suit is simply 

more legal gamesmanship by the Trevarthans in their ongoing campaign to 

abuse the legal system and win a free house.” We agree, adding only that the 

instant appeal is equally spurious and contumacious.

AFFIRMED.
