       The Court has considered this cause on the record and concludes the trial court’s judgment

should be affirmed in part and reversed and remanded in part. We therefore affirm the judgment

of the trial court except the portion of the judgment denying attorney’s fees under TEX. GOV’T

instructions to determine and award Appellee/Cross-Appellant reasonable attorney’s fees. We

further order that Appellee/Cross-Appellant recover from Appellant/Cross-Appellee all costs of

this appeal, for which let execution issue. This decision shall be certified below for observance.

       IT IS SO ORDERED THIS 29TH DAY OF NOVEMBER, 2022.
