                               STATEMENT OF THE CASE

       This is an appeal of the dismissal of a baseless cause of action under

TEX.R.CIV.P. 91a. ROA, p. 408.             Although seemingly uncomplicated on its face,

the order appealed from arises from a procedurally entangled probate proceeding.1

       Appellant’s underlying proceeding for injunctive relief is the sixth sub-

docketed suit within the probate proceeding concerning the Estate of Adel

Sheshtawy, Deceased.2 ROA, p. 7. The first sub-docketed suit involves

Appellant’s declaratory action to establish her status as decedent’s common law

spouse.3 Appellee’s Appendix, Item 6; Second Supplemental Clerk’s Record, pp.

11-224. Appellant’s common law marriage suit was resolved by a Rule 11 and

Final Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) approved by the trial

court July 17, 2013. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 39-41, 124.


       1
         Cause No. 407,499; Estate of Adel Sheshtawy, Deceased; Probate Court Number One of
Harris County, Texas is the base probate proceeding (“Base Proceeding”); related proceedings

           The Second Supplemental Clerk’s Record is referred to herein as “S.S.C.R.”

       On January 15, 2014, Valentina moved to set aside the order approving the

settlement agreement in the common law marriage action. ROA, p. 140. The trial

court denied the motion on January 30, 2014. ROA, p.163. No appeal was taken.

       In the base proceeding, Decedent’s three children were declared the

decedent’s sole lawful heirs. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 5; S.S.C.R., pp. 7-10. The

trial court found that Decedent was not married at the time of his death.

Appellee’s Appendix, Item 5; S.S.C.R., pp. 7-10. No appeal of the heirship

judgment was taken.

       In her most recent proceeding,5 Valentina seeks injunctive relief to prevent

the sale of the property despite her contractual obligation to sell it. ROA, p. 7.

       In response to Valentina’s Injunction Action, Appellee (“Temporary

Administrator”) asserted affirmative defenses including release, waiver, estoppel

and res judicata. ROA, pp. 99-100.

       Temporary Administrator timely moved to dismiss Valentina’s suit for

injunctive relief as a baseless cause of action. TEX.R.CIV.P. 91a.3; ROA, p. 398.

The trial court granted the motion to dismiss. ROA, p. 406.


       5
        Appellant filed her original petition for injunctive relief in the 165th District Court of
Harris County, Texas on April 30, 2014. ROA, p. 7. The District Court granted Appellant an ex
parte TRO on April 30, 2014. ROA, p. 17. The proceeding was transferred to Probate Court
Number One of Harris County, Texas under Cause Number 407,499-406 by order of the probate
court on May 9, 2014. ROA, p. 20.

    Whether the trial court properly dismissed Appellant’s proceeding as a

                               STATEMENT OF FACTS

       Appellee objects to Appellant’s statement of facts.

                                     Base Proceeding

       On August 8, 2011, Adel Sheshtawy (“Adel”) passed away. On September

7, 2011, an application to probate Adel’s will was filed in Probate Court Number

One of Harris County, Texas.6        Upon his death, the divorce proceeding between

Adel and Appellant (“Valentina”) pending in the family court was dismissed for

want of jurisdiction.7 The family court’s interlocutory order finding that a

common law marriage existed between Adel and Valentina became void upon

Adel’s death.8

                      Valentina’s Common Law Marriage Suit

       On November 14, 2011, Valentina filed a petition in the trial court seeking a

declaratory judgment that she was Adel’s common law spouse and that Adel was

         The death of a spouse while divorce was pending relieved the district court of

the father of Valentina’s minor child, Lily Sheshtawy (“Lily”).9 Appellee’s

Appendix, Item 6; S.S.C.R., pp. 11-22.

       On January 16, 2013, Adel’s two adult children Nader Sheshtawy (“Nader”)

and Hanya Sustache (“Hanya”) filed their answer and counterclaim to Valentina’s

common law marriage suit. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 7; S.S.C.R., pp. 23-34. On

February 28, 2013, the trial court appointed an attorney ad litem to represent Lily’s

interests in that suit. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 8; S.S.C.R., pp. 35-36.

             Settlement of Valentina’s Common Law Marriage Suit

       On May 28, 2013, Valentina, Lily, Nader and Hanya entered into a Rule 11

and Final Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) in Valentina’s

common law marriage suit. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32-41. The

settlement agreement provided that the property would be sold, Valentina would

receive a portion of the sales proceeds, and another portion of sales proceeds

would be used to acquire Lily’s new homestead. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3;

ROA, pp. 32, 34-35.

County, Texas (referred to herein as “Valentina’s Common Law Marriage Suit”).

       Valentina has been represented by multiple attorneys since 2011 to assert

and defend her rights and purported status as Adel’s common law spouse.10

Valentina was represented by counsel when she negotiated and signed the

settlement agreement. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 36.

Valentina’s minor child was represented by her attorney ad litem, who also signed

the settlement agreement. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 36, 39.

       Before signing the settlement agreement, neither Valentina nor Lily

requested the homestead to be set aside. Likewise, neither objected to the trial

court’s order approving family allowance or its order approving Temporary

Administrator’s preliminary inventory for failure to set aside the property as their

homestead.

       The attorney ad litem expressly approved the terms of the settlement

agreement as being in Lily’s best interest. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 4; ROA, pp.

124-126. The trial court found the settlement agreement to be in Lily’s best

interest and approved it. ROA, pp. 124-126.

            Temporary Administrator’s Efforts to Sell the Property

      On October 14, 2013, Temporary Administrator filed his application to sell

the property. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 11; S.S.C.R., pp. 43-55. Valentina and

Lily received notice of the application and the hearing date set for the trial court’s

consideration thereof. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 12; S.S.C.R., pp. 56-57.

      Neither Valentina nor Lily objected to Temporary Administrator’s

application to sell the property. On October 31, 2013, the trial court entered an

order approving the sale of the property. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 13; S.S.C.R.,

pp. 58-60; ROA, p. 43.

      Temporary Administrator entered a contract for sale of the property on

December 11, 2013. ROA, pp 165, 172.

                         Valentina’s Efforts to Set Aside
             Settlement Agreement and Prevent Sale of Property

      On January 10, 2014, Valentina filed a motion for rehearing and to set aside

the order of sale of the property in the base proceeding. Appellee’s Appendix, Item

14; S.S.C.R., pp. 61-75. The trial court did not sign Valentina’s proposed order.

      On January 15, 2014, Valentina filed a motion for rehearing and to void

settlement agreement in Valentina’s common law marriage suit. ROA, p. 47. On

January 30, 2014, the trial court denied the motion and found that Valentina, as


                                          -4-
next friend of Lily, had no standing to challenge the settlement agreement. ROA,

pp. 71-72.

      On February 10, 2014, Nader and Hanya filed a motion to show authority in

the base proceeding asking the trial court to require Valentina’s attorneys to

appear and defend their authority to act on behalf of Lily, whose interests were

already represented by a guardian of her estate appointed by the trial court.

Appellee’s Appendix, Item 15; S.S.C.R., pp. 76-79.

      On March 3, 2014, the trial court granted Nader and Hanya’s motion to

show authority and ordered that any pleadings purportedly filed in the base

proceeding on behalf of Lily by and through her next friend, Valentina, were

stricken. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 16; S.S.C.R., pp. 80-81. Among the stricken

pleadings was Valentina’s motion for rehearing and to set aside the order of sale of

the property. ROA, p. 47.

                            Valentina’s Ex Parte Relief

      Undeterred, on April 30, 2014 Valentina obtained an ex parte temporary

restraining order from the 165th Harris County district court to prevent the sale of

the property. ROA, p. 17. On May 9, 2014, Valentina’s injunction suit was

transferred to the trial court. ROA, p. 20. On the same day, Valentina filed a

homestead affidavit and lis pendens against the property. ROA, pp. 213, 205.

                                          -5-
      On May 16, 2014, the trial court denied the petition for temporary

injunction and adjudged that the temporary restraining order dated April 30, 2014

had expired as a matter of law. ROA, p. 93.

         Trial Court Dismisses Valentina’s Injunction Suit as Baseless

      In response to Valentina’s injunction suit, Temporary Administrator

asserted affirmative defenses including waiver, release, estoppel and res judicata.

ROA, p. 99, 100. On May 23, 2014, Temporary Administrator moved to dismiss

Valentina’s injunction suit as a baseless cause of action pursuant to TEX.R.CIV.P.

91a. ROA, pp. 398-405.     The trial court granted the motion on June 23, 2014.

ROA, p. 406-407.

      This appeal followed. ROA, p. 408.

                           SUMMARY OF ARGUMENT


ISSUE 1      The trial court properly dismissed Appellant’s proceeding for
             injunctive relief as a baseless cause of action.


      Valentina failed to perfect an appeal of the trial court order approving the

settlement agreement. Therefore, the issue is not properly before this court.

Moreover, Valentina’s action has no basis in law because her allegations for

injunctive relief, together with inferences reasonably drawn from them, do not

entitle her to the relief sought.

      When Valentina entered into the settlement agreement, she understood and

agreed the property she and her daughter were residing in would be sold and she

would receive $100,000 from the sales proceeds. Valentina affirmatively settled

and released the claims she now brings as part of the settlement agreement. By

accepting consideration pursuant to the settlement agreement, Valentina ratified

the contract and is estopped from injunctive relief to prevent its enforcement.

      Lily’s interests were properly represented by the court appointed attorney ad

litem and Valentina has no standing to bring the petition for injunctive relief.




                                          -7-
      Valentina waived any homestead rights she may have had when she agreed

that Nader, Hanya and Lily were Adel’s sole heirs. Valentina failed to appeal the

final judgment declaring heirship in which the trial court found that Adel was not

married at the time of his death; therefore, this issue has not been preserved for

appeal.

                     ARGUMENTS AND AUTHORITIES

ISSUE 1     The trial court properly dismissed Valentina’s proceeding as a
            baseless cause of action.

                     Standard of Review : De Novo Review

      Whether a trial court properly dismissed a proceeding as a baseless cause of

action pursuant to TEX.R.CIV.P. 91a is reviewable de novo by the appellate court.

Wooley v. Schaffer, WL 3955111 (Tex.App. – Houston [14th Dist.] 2014).

      A party may move to dismiss a cause of action on the grounds that it has no

basis in law or fact. TEX.R.CIV.P. 91a. Temporary Administrator’s motion to

dismiss was made pursuant to the rule, identified each cause of action and stated

the specific reasons Valentina’s cause of action had no basis in law. TEX.R.CIV.P.

91a.2. ROA, p. 398. A cause of action has no basis in law if the allegations, taken

as true, together with inferences reasonably drawn from them, do not entitle the

claimant to the relief sought. TEX.R.CIV.P. 91a.1.

            Valentina Did Not Preserve Her Issues for Appeal

      A judgment is final and appealable if it disposes of all parties and issues.

Litoff v. Jackson, 742 S.W.2d 788, 789 (Tex.App. – San Antonio 1987, no writ)

(citing North East Independent School District v. Aldridge, 400 S.W.2d 893, 895



                                         -9-
(Tex. 1966)). The trial court’s order approving the settlement agreement disposed

of all parties and issues with respect to Valentina’s common law marriage suit and

constitutes a final, appealable judgment. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 4; ROA, pp.

124-126; Litoff v. Jackson, 742 S.W.2d 788, 789 (Tex.App. – San Antonio 1987,

no writ).

      The trial court’s order approving the settlement agreement was signed on

July 17, 2013. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 4; ROA, pp. 124-126. Valentina did not

file a notice of appeal of the trial court’s order. Therefore, she has not timely

perfected an appeal as to whether the settlement agreement is revocable and it is

not properly before this court. TEX.R.APP.P. 26.1.

      If this court determines Valentina has preserved error for appeal, then the

trial court’s order should be affirmed because the lower court properly dismissed

Valentina’s injunction suit as having no basis in law.

                    Valentina’s Claims have No Basis in Law

      Valentina’s petition for injunctive relief seeks to prevent the sale of the

property on three grounds:

      1)     The Settlement Agreement is Unenforceable. Valentina’s attorney
             gave her poor advice causing her to sign a grossly unfair settlement
             agreement. Valentina did not intend to waive her homestead rights
             when she signed the settlement agreement.



                                          -10-
      2)     Valentina’s Homestead Rights. As the purported common law
             spouse of Adel, Valentina enjoys homestead protection afforded by
             the Texas Constitution; the trial court erred by failing to set aside the
             property as the homestead of Valentina and Lily.

      3)     Lily’s Homestead Rights. Lily’s attorney ad litem did not have
             authority to sign the settlement agreement requiring the sale of her
             homestead nor did Temporary Administrator have authority to sell it.

ROA, pp. 7-10.

                  A. The Settlement Agreement is Enforceable

      The settlement agreement identified the property as “the property commonly

known as 12206 Cabo Blanco Court, Houston, Texas 77041.” Appellee’s

Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 33. Valentina voluntarily agreed that the property

would be sold and she would receive $100,000 from the sales proceeds.

Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 34. Valentina agreed that she and Lily

would reside in the property until its sale, cooperate to expedite the sale and

execute documents as necessary at closing. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp.

32, 35.

                  Valentina’s Representations and Warranties

      The settlement agreement included the following representations and

warranties by Valentina. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 36-37.

                                          -11-
The Settlement Agreement was Binding.

     vi)    the terms and provisions of this Agreement are valid, binding
            and enforceable as against himself or herself, any such Party’s
            successors and affiliates. Section 3.4 (vi); Section 3.5 (a).

Valentina was represented by Counsel.

     vi)    that he or she is adequately represented by competent counsel
            of his or her choosing in connection with the execution and
            delivery of this Agreement and in any and all matters relating
            thereto, or has voluntarily waived such right to seek the advice
            of a legal advisor. Section 3.4(viii)

Donald Worley solely represented Valentina.

     x)     that Donald Worley, solely represents Valentina and does not
            and has never represented any other Party and has not provided
            any other Party legal advice or services or made any
            representations to any other Party. Section 3.4(x)

Cameron McCulloch, Jr. solely represented Lily.

     xi)    that Cameron McCulloch, Jr., solely represents Lily and does
            not and has never represented any other Party and has not
            provided any other Party legal advice or services or made any
            representations to any other Party. Section 3.4(xi)

Each Party Relied Upon His Own Judgment and Advice of Counsel.

     xii)   that in executing this Agreement, each Party has relied upon his
            or her own judgment and the advice of his or her own
            attorneys, and further, that he or she has not been induced to

                                 -12-
                  sign this Agreement by promises, agreements or
                  representations not expressly stated herein, and he or she has
                  freely and willingly executed this Agreement and expressly
                  disclaims reliance upon any facts, promises, undertakings, or
                  representations made by any other Party, or by such Party’s
                  Affiliates . Section 3.4(xii)

      Consent was not procured, obtained or induced by improper conduct,
      undue influence or duress.

            xiii) that the consent of such Party to this Agreement was not
                  procured, obtained or induced by improper conduct, undue
                  influence or duress. Section 3.4(xiii)

      Each Party made an Informed Consent.

            xiv) that such Party has knowledge of all relevant and material
                 information and facts and has been fully informed, including by
                 advice of counsel, concerning the existence of potential Claims
                 ... in order for him or her to make an informed and considered
                 decision to enter into the Agreement, and/or specifically and
                 after advice of counsel is waiving any right to obtain or
                 demand same. Section 3.4(xiv)

      No Party was in Disparate Bargaining Position.

            xv)   that he or she is not in a significantly disparate bargaining
                  position with regard to any other Party. Section 3.4(xv)

      Moreover, Valentina agreed it was a final agreement and waived claims of

fraudulent inducement. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 38.

                  Section 3.5 (k) provides:

                  THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL
                  AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND
                  MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF
                                        -13-
                   PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL
                   OR WRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN OR AMONG
                   ONE OR MORE OF THE PARTIES HERETO. EACH
                   PARTY WAIVES ANY CLAIMS THAT HE OR SHE WAS
                   FRAUDULENTLY INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS
                   AGREEMENT.

Valentina Released all Claims

      Valentina released all claims she had to Adel’s estate, specifically including

the property. The settlement agreement provided:

            f.     The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is
                   intended to settle all Claims by Valentina to Adel’s Estate
                   and/or against Nader and/or Hanya including to any assets of
                   Adel’s Estate, the Cabo Blanco Property, any companies
                   and/or assets of any of them. An heirship will be entered
                   determining Hanya, Nader and Lily as Adel’s sole heirs.

      Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 35 (emphasis added).

      “Claims” is defined to include:

                   “... and any other ground, whether or not asserted, which any
                   person, has, may have, or have had against the released and/or
                   indemnified party, now existing or arising in the future,
                   including the claims brought or which could have been brought
                   by Valentina through the effective date of this Agreement
                   relating to Nader, Hanya, the Lawsuit, Adel’s Estate, including
                   any claims of common law marriage, save and except
                   warranties and representations under this Agreement. THE
                   PARTIES AGREE THAT THE DEFINITION OF “CLAIMS”
                   IS AND SHALL BE AS BROAD AS THE LAW WILL
                   ALLOW.”

      Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 33. (emphasis added).

                                        -14-
      Because Valentina waived any right or claim concerning the property and

agreed that Hanya, Nader and Lily were Adel’s sole heirs at law, the trial court

properly dismissed Valentina’s injunction suit as having no basis in law.

Settlement Agreement Required Sale of Homestead

      The Settlement Agreement authorized and directed the sale of the property

in issue to fund a majority of the cash payment to Valentina. Appellee’s Appendix,

Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 34-35. Valentina agreed to accept $145,000 in full and final

settlement of all claims which were or could have been brought relating to

Valentina’s common law marriage suit, Adel’s Estate, the residential real

property located at 12206 Cabo Blanco Lane, or Adel’s two adult children, Nader

and Hanya. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32-35 (Emphasis added).

       The Settlement Agreement provided that the property would be sold and

Valentina would receive a cash payment of $100,000 from the sales proceeds at

closing. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 34-35.

Valentina Signed the Agreement

      Valentina signed the agreement. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32,

39. Valentina’s attorney signed the order approving the settlement agreement.

Appellee’s Appendix, Item 4; ROA, pp. 124, 126.




                                        -15-
      Further, Valentina judicially admitted that, upon advice of counsel, she

signed the agreement by which her house would be sold:

             “On May 28, 2013, Valentina was advised, by her attorney at the
             time, to sign a settlement agreement giving Cameron McCulloch, as
             Attorney ad litem for Lily, the ability to sell the house as 12206 Cabo
             Blanco Court.” ROA, pp. 7,8.


      The presence or absence of signatures on a written contract is relevant to

determining whether the parties are bound by the contract. In re Bunzl USA, Inc.,

155 S.W.3d 202, 209 (Tex.App. – El Paso 2004, orig. proceeding). A party’s

signature on a contract is strong evidence that the party unconditionally assented

to its terms. Id.

Public Policy Protects Freedom to Contract

      There is a strong public policy to preserve freedom of contract. Lawrence v.

CDB Servs., Inc., 44 S.W.3d 544, 553 (Tex. 2001). It is generally recognized that

parties dealing at arms length have a wide discretion as to the terms of the contract

into which they may wish to enter. Thomas v. Mandell & Wright, 433 S.W.2d

218, 228 (Tex.Civ.App. – Houston [1st Dist.] 1968), rev’d on other grounds, 441

S.W.2d 841 (Tex. 1969).

      Parties are entitled to select the terms and provisions they want included in a

contract before signing it. ASI Tech., Inc. v. Johnson Equip. Co., 75 S.W.3d 545,

                                         -16-
548 (Tex.App. – San Antonio 2002, pet. denied). “In short, parties strike the deal

they choose and, thus, voluntarily bind themselves in the manner they choose.” Id.

      The general rule is that every person who has the capacity to enter into a

contract is held to know what words were used in the contract, to know their

meaning, and to understand their legal effect. Amouri v. Sw. Toyota, Inc., 20

S.W.3d 165, 169 n.2 (Tex.App. – Texarkana 2000, pet. denied). The consequence

of this rule is that a party to a contract may not successfully claim that he believed

the provisions of the contract were different from those plainly set out in the

agreement or that he did not understand the meaning of the language used. Brown

v. Aztec Rig Equip., Inc., 921 S.W.2d 835, 8436 (Tex.App. – Houston [14th Dist.]

1996, writ denied).

      It is not for a reviewing court to determine why the parties contracted as

they did. Austin Bridge Company, et al. v. State of Texas, 427 S.W.2d 925

(Tex.App. – Austin 1968, writ ref’d n.r.e. ). Public policy “permits the utmost

freedom of contract between parties of full age and competent understanding and

requires that their contracts when freely and voluntarily entered into, shall be held

sacred and enforced by the courts ...” Crutchfield v. Associates Investment

Company, 376 S.W.2d 957, 959 (Tex.App. – Dallas 1964, writ ref’d.).




                                          -17-
No Allegation of Fraud, Collusion or Misrepresentation

      Valentina’s pleading did not raise any allegation or evidence of fraud,

collusion or misrepresentation. ROA, pp. 7-10. Absent fraud, misrepresentation,

or deceit, a party is bound by the terms of the contact he signed, regardless of

whether he reads it or believed it had different terms. In re McKinney, 167 S.W.3d

833, 835 (Tex. 2005).

Valentina Accepted Consideration and Cannot Rescind the Contract

      Texas law provides that the right to rescind a contract is waived by the

retention of consideration. Guerrero v. Hagco Building Systems, Inc., 733

S.W.2d 635, 638 (Tex.App. – San Antonio 1987, no writ) (citing American

Mannex Corp. v. Huffstutler, 328 F.2d 449, 455 (5th Cir. 1964)). A prerequisite to

cancellation of a settlement agreement is the return of consideration received.

Kennedy v. Texas Employers Ins. Ass’n, 121 S.W.2d 434 (Tex.Civ.App. – Dallas

1938, aff’d).

      The Settlement Agreement provided that Nader would loan $45,000 to

Temporary Administrator to pay Valentina, from which she would use

approximately $20,000 to purchase a reliable car to transport Lily. Appellee’s

Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 34. On July 29, 2013, Temporary Administrator

                                         -18-
filed an application in the base proceeding for authority to borrow funds and

execute a promissory note to Nader. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 17; S.S.C.R., pp.

82-89. Valentina received notice of the oral hearing on the application to borrow

funds. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 18; S.S.C.R., pp. 90-91.

      Valentina made no objection and the trial court granted Temporary

Administrator’s application. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 19; S.S.C.R., pp. 92-93.

      Valentina accepted the $45,000 payment as partial consideration under the

settlement agreement, has not returned the payment, and has no right to rescind the

contract. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 20; S.S.C.R., pp. 94-97.

Valentina Waived Homestead Rights

      Valentina waived and relinquished any right to assert homestead protection.

The settlement agreement she signed unequivocally mandated the sale of the property

where she and Lily resided and provided that Valentina would receive a portion of

those sales proceeds. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 34-35.

      A party to a contract may not successfully claim that he believed the provisions

of the contract were different from those plainly set out in the agreement or that he

did not understand the meaning of the language used. Brown v. Aztec Rig Equip.,

      The homestead right may be waived. VERNON’S ANN. TEXAS CONST. ART. 16,

§52; TEXAS ESTATES CODE § 102.003 (formerly V.A.T.S. PROBATE CODE § 283);

Williams v. Williams, 569 S.W.2d 867, 870 (Tex. 1978); Hunter v. Clark, 687 S.W.2d

811, 815 (Tex.App. – San Antonio 1985, no writ). The right to a probate homestead

is a personal right which may be waived by agreement. Ferguson v. Ferguson, 111

S.W.3d 589, 598 (Tex.App. – Fort Worth, 2003, pet. denied).

      Waiver is defined as an intentional relinquishment of a known right. United

States Fid. & Guar. Co. v. Bimco Iron & Metal Corp., 464 S.W.2d 353, 357 (Tex.

1971). The key element to waiver is intent.       ASI Technologies, Inc. v. Johnson

Equip. Co., 75 S.W.3d 545, 548 (Tex.App. – San Antonio 2002, pet. denied) (quoting

Sedona Contracting, Inc. v. Ford, Powell & Carson, Inc., 995 S.W.2d 192, 195

(Tex.App. – San Antonio 1999, pet. denied)).

      Valentina judicially admitted that she signed the settlement agreement upon

advice of counsel. ROA, pp. 7, 8. The agreement included her settlement and release

of all claims to the property. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 33, 35. The

agreement required the property now in issue to be sold and provided Valentina

would receive funds from its sale. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32, 34- 35.

Accordingly, there is no basis at law to support Valentina’s allegation that she did not

intend to waive her homestead rights and the trial court properly dismissed her suit.

                                          -20-
                  B. Valentina’s Purported Homestead Rights

      The only legal basis for Valentina’s purported homestead rights in the property

stems from her purported common law marriage to Adel.

Hanya, Nader and Lily are Adel’s Sole Heirs

      The parties agreed that an heirship would be entered determining Hanya, Nader

and Lily as Adel’s sole heirs, and that nothing therein would be deemed to dismiss

Lily’s claims to the assets of Adel’s Estate. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp.

32, 35. The trial court entered a final judgment declaring heirship finding by clear

and convincing evidence that Hanya, Nader and Lily were Adel’s sole heirs, and that

Adel was not married at the time of his death. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 5; S.S.C.R.,

pp. 7-10.

      Valentina has no homestead rights in the property because no common law

marriage between Adel and Valentina existed at the time of his death. Appellee’s

Appendix, Item 5; S.S.C.R., pp. 7-10. The judgment declaring heirship was a final,

appealable order. TEX.EST.CODE § 202.202. De Ayla v. Mackie, 193 S.W.3d 575,

578 (Tex. 2006). Valentina failed to perfect an appeal of the judgment declaring

heirship. TEX.R.APP.P. 25.1. Further, Valentina waived and released any claim

arising from her common law marriage. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 3; ROA, pp. 32,




                                         -21-
33, 35. Accordingly, Valentina’s petition for injunctive relief arising from her

purported homestead rights has no basis in law. TEX.R.CIV.P. 91a.1.

                              C. Lily’s Homestead Rights

      By agreement of the parties, the trial court appointed Cameron McCulloch as

Lily’s attorney ad litem in Valentina’s common law marriage action due to a conflict

of interest between Valentina and Lily. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 8; S.S.C.R., pp.

35-36. The trial court also appointed Mr. McCulloch as Lily’s attorney ad litem in

the guardianship proceeding. Appellee’s Appendix, Item 9; S.S.C.R., pp. 37-38. Mr.

McCulloch was also appointed as guardian of Lily’s estate. Appellee’s Appendix,

Item 10; S.S.C.R., pp. 39-42.

            Trial Court’s Authority to Appoint Lily’s Attorney ad Litem

      An attorney ad litem is properly appointed by the judge of a probate court as

follows:

                . . . In any probate proceeding, to represent the interests of : (1) a person
                who has a legal disability; (2) a nonresident; (3) an unborn or
                unascertained person; or (4) an unknown heir; (5) a missing heir; (6) an
                unknown or missing person for whom cash is deposited into the court’s
                registry under Section 363.011. TEX.PROBATE CODE § 34A.11

      The term “probate proceeding” is defined as including:




      11
           Currently, TEXAS ESTATE CODE § 53.104(a).
                                              -22-
                (1) an heirship determination; (2) application, petition, motion or action
                regarding the probate of a will or an estate administration, including a
                claim for money owed by the decedent; (3) a claim arising from an estate
                administration and any action brought on the claim; and (4) the settling
                of a personal representative’s account of an estate and any other matter
                related to the settlement, partition, or distribution of an estate. TEX.
                PROBATE CODE § 3(bb).12


      The Probate Code defines “matters related to probate proceeding” to include

an action against a personal representative arising out of the representative’s

performance of the duties of a personal representative. TEX. PROB. CODE § 4B.13

      In accordance with these provisions, the trial court properly appointed Lily’s

attorney ad litem. Lily’s attorney ad litem approved the settlement agreement and

signed the order approving same. ROA, pp. 53, 55; Appellee’s Appendix, Item 4;

ROA, pp. 124-126. Accordingly, Valentina’s cause of action asserting the settlement

agreement was not binding on Lily because her attorney ad litem was not properly

appointed is without basis in law.

       For the foregoing reasons, Michael L. Fuqua, Temporary Administrator of the

Estate of Adel Sheshtawy, Deceased, respectfully requests that this Honorable Court

affirm the trial court’s order dismissing Appellant’s proceeding as a baseless cause

of action pursuant to TEX.R.CIV.P. 91a and for such further relief to which he may be

entitled.
