Issues Presented..........................................................................................................   7

           Issue No. 1: The conveyances are void as a matter of law because the

           all“ clause could convey substantial property interest.

           conveyed.

           Issue No. 4: A material question fact remains due to the ambiguity
           surrounding the discord over what property was conveyed in the
           conveyance..

           Issue No. 5: Material questions of fact concerning the possession and
           control of the mineral interests exist based upon the discrepancies between
           the judicially admitted documents provided by Appellee and the
           subsequently sworn Affidavit by Appellee.

           Issue No. 6: Questions of material fact concerning the possession and

           Affidavit by Appellee.

           Issue No. 7: A material question of fact remains due to the cumulative

                                STATEMENT OF THE CASE

Nature of the case:
       This case arises from a suit to quiet title to certain oil and gas properties, by Appellant
       Mark J. Mueller, located in Harrison County, Texas. This is an appeal from a summary
       judgment granted in favor of Appellee James H. Davis Individually, and James H. Davis
       Individually, and d/b/a J. D. Minerals and JDMI, LLC. Appellant Mark J. Mueller owns
       said properties as a result of conveyances from James Hammond Mills, Charles Horne,
       and Virginia Mills Mitchell Cope. (CLR at 30, Tab O, CLR at 34, Tab P, and CLR at 38,
       Tab Q) Appellee is claiming title through a Mother Hubbard Clause (catch-all clause),
       found in small print in alleged conveyances in 1991. (CLR at 18, Tab A, and CLR at 21,
       Tab B)

Trial Court:
       71st Judicial District Court of Harrison County, Texas, Cause No. 11-0858, the Honorable
       Judge Brad Morin presiding.

Disposition:
       Trial court granted summary judgment to Appellee, shortly before trial.

Requested Relief on Appeal:
      Appellant asks this court to reverse the trial court’s summary judgment and render
      judgment in favor of Appellant on the basis that the Mother Hubbard Clause (catch-all
      clause) is only meant to convey small strips of adjoining property pursuant to J. Hiram
      Moore, Ltd. v. Greer, 172 S.W.3d 609, 613 (Tex. 2005). In the alternative, Appellant
      asks this court to reverse the trial court’s Summary Judgment and render judgment in
      favor of Appellant on the basis that the conveyances do not comply with the Statue of
      Frauds. In the alternative, Appellant request the court to reverse the trial court’s summary
      judgment and remand the trial court on the basis that there are issues of fact to be
      decided by the trier of fact.

                            REQUEST FOR ORAL ARGUMENT

       Pursuant to the provisions of TEX. R. APP. P. 39, Appellant Mueller hereby requests oral

argument of this cause. Appellant believes that oral argument will be useful to the Court of

Appeals in explaining the issues that have been raised.

                                    ISSUES PRESENTED

Issue No. 1:   The conveyances are void as a matter of law because the property descriptions are
               not legally sufficient pursuant to the requirements of the Statute of Frauds.

Issue No. 2:   It was improper to hold that the Mother Hubbard or “Catch-all“ clause could
               convey substantial property interest.

Issue No. 3:   A material question of fact remains as to what property was conveyed.

Issue No. 4:   A material question fact remains due to the ambiguity surrounding the discord
               over what property was conveyed in the lease.

Issue No. 5:   Material questions of fact concerning the possession and control of the mineral
               interests exists based upon the discrepancies between the judicially admitted
               documents provided by Appellee and the subsequently sworn Affidavit by
               Appellee.

Issue No. 6:   Material questions of fact concerning the possession and control of the mineral
               interests exist based upon the discrepancies between the official Harrison County
               documents and the subsequently sworn Affidavit by Appellee.

Issue No. 7:   A material question of fact remains due to the cumulative nature of Appellee’s
               prior bad acts.




APPELLANT’S BRIEF
7 of 35
                              SUMMARY OF THE ARGUMENT

       According to Section 26.01, of the Business and Commerce Code, Vernon’s Texas Codes

Annotated, the Statute of Frauds (formerly Art. 3995), property descriptions must contain

adequate information so that the identity of the property conveyed can be reasonably ascertained.

During the oil boom of the 1930's, in order to cover small strips of land which were inadvertently

left out of property descriptions in both oil and gas leases and mineral and royalty deeds.

Conveyances began to include a blanket conveyance clause, commonly referred to as the ‘Mother

Hubbard Clause.’ According to Texas case law, the inherent or specific purpose of the Mother

Hubbard Clause is to prevent the leaving of small unleased pieces or strips of land, which may

exist without the knowledge of one or both of the parties by reason of incorrect surveying,

careless location of fences, or other mistakes. The use of a general and vague ‘catch-all’ phrases

to include larger tracts of land is not upheld. In the documents Appellee prepared, hidden in

small print at the end of a paragraph, he used a sweeping reference which he claims conveyed

title to all the oil and gas properties that Ms. Cope and Mr. Mills owned in Harrison County,

Texas. Appellant asserts that the language in question was meant to convey only small strips of

land, and not the large tracts of land now claimed by Appellee. The trial court improperly held

that the documents in question conveyed all of Grantors’ mineral interests in Harrison County.

       The court erred when it did not hold that the conveyances from Ms. Cope and Mr. Mills

to Appellee in 1991, which do not contain legally sufficient property descriptions, are void as a

matter of law. The Appellee has admitted in admissions that the conveyances do not contain a

metes and bound description, nor a Volume and Page reference to a prior document that was filed

in County Clerk’s office of Harrison County, Texas. According to the Statute of Frauds, these

APPELLANT’S BRIEF
8 of 35
deeds are void as a matter of law.

       Additional language in the conveyances themselves, stating that “Grantor agrees to

execute any supplemental instrument requested by Grantee for a more complete description of

said land” reflects there never was an intent to convey all of Cope and Mills interest.

       The documents that were produced in discovery are self authenticating under rule 193.7

of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure, and raise a question of fact for the trier of fact, since these

documents indicate that Appellee did not own the minerals in Harrison County, Texas.

       The trial court should not have granted Appellee’s Motion for Summary Judgement

because a question of fact remains as to the issue of whether Appellee ever had possession of the

mineral interests. Although Appellant now claims ownership of all mineral interests, there is

substantial evidence that Ms. Cope and Mr. Mills had retained ownership for more than twenty

years. The evidence was provided in the form of official tax records and numerous mineral

leases and other conveyances signed by Cope and Mills. Other documents include

correspondence from the Appellee seeking to buy and/or lease other minerals interests from Cope

and Mills.

       The trial court improperly refused to consider the evidence of Appellee’s prior bad acts.

Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 404(b) permits the admission of evidence of the habit of a person,

or of the routine practice of an organization, if the evidence is relevant to prove that the conduct

of the person or organization on a particular occasion was in conformity with the habit or routine

practice. In his Responses to Admissions, Appellee admitted to the existence of numerous prior

bad acts. These acts reveal that Appellee had a pattern of questionable business dealings.

                              ARGUMENT AND AUTHORITIES

       This case on appeal involves both questions of law for the trial court and material

questions of fact for the trier of fact. The first two issues concern questions of law. First,

whether the trial court decided the legal sufficiency of the property descriptions found in the

conveyances as required by the Statute of Frauds. Second, whether the trial court, followed

proper legal precedence when it considered the application of the Mother Hubbard clause. The

remaining issues involve questions of fact concerning the consideration and admissibility of prior

bad acts and the actual possession of the mineral interests.

                                         I.
      As a matter of law, the conveyances are void because the property
   descriptions are not legally sufficient pursuant to the requirements of the
                                Statute of Frauds.

       According to Section 26.01, of the Business and Commerce Code, Vernon’s Texas Codes

Annotated, the Statute of Frauds (formerly Art. 3995), property descriptions must contain

adequate information so that the identity of the property conveyed can be reasonable ascertained.

An instrument conveying land must contain a legally sufficient description or the instrument is

void under the statute of frauds. Dixon v. Amoco Prod. Co., 150 S.W.3d 191, 194 (App.--Tyler

2004, pet. denied) It is well established that in order for a property description to be held legally

sufficient “the writing furnishes within itself or by reference to some other writing, the means or

data to identify the particular land to be conveyed may be identified with reasonable certainty.”

AIC Mgmt. v. Crews, 246 S.W.3d 640, 645 (Tex. 2008) See also, Pick v. Bartel, 659 S.W.2d

636, 637 (Tex.1983); Jones v. Kelley, 614 S.W.2d 95, 99 (Tex. 1981) (citing Morrow v.

Shotwell, 477 S.W.2d 538, 539 (Tex. 1972); Wilson v. Fisher, 144 Tex. 53, 188 S.W.2d 150, 152

(1945).

          The purpose of a written land description is not merely to identify the property, but also

to provide an actual means of identification. Fears v. Texas Bank, 247 SW3d 729, 736 (App.

Texarkana 2008) The Fears court held that, “The legal description in the conveyance must not

only furnish enough information to locate the general area, as in identifying it by tract survey and

county, it need contain information regarding the size, shape, and boundaries.” Id. P.736; See

also, Morrow, 477 S.W.2d at 539; Matney v. Odom, 147 Tex. 26, 210 S.W.2d 980, 982 (1948)

The conveyances subject to this appeal contain the following statement, “Grantor hereby conveys

to Grantee all of the minerals, royalty, overriding royalty interest owned by Grantor in Harrison

County, whether or not same is herein above correctly described.” (CLR at 18, Tab A and CLR at

21, Tab B) Established case law provides us with examples of legally insufficient property

descriptions. In each of the following cases, cited in Republic Nat'l Bank of Dallas v. Stetson,

390 S.W.2d 257, 263 (Tex. 1965), the property descriptions were held to be insufficient to satisfy

the Statute of Frauds because they did not furnish the means to identify the land:

          "the following described property lying and situated in the County of Ellis, State of
          Texas, being approximately 154.63 acres of land in Ellis County, Texas, in two tracts,

The property descriptions subject to this appeal are not specific and are even less descriptive

than the preceding descriptions. If a conveyance of an interest in real property does not

sufficiently describe the land to be conveyed, it is void and unenforceable under the statute of

frauds, Stetson, at 261. The descriptions are legally insufficient and the conveyances are void

as a matter of law. The sufficiency of the legal description in any instrument transferring a

property interest is a question of law and subject to a de novo review. Dixon v. Amoco Prod.

Co., at 194.

       This Honorable Court should reverse and render judgment in favor of Appellant, in that

as a matter of law the conveyances are void under the statute of frauds.

                                      II.
 The trial court erred when it held that the Mother Hubbard or “Catch-all“
              clause could convey substantial property interest.

       During the oil boom of the 1930's, in order to cover small strips of land which were

inadvertently left out of property descriptions in oil and gas leases, mineral and royalty deeds,

and other documents began to include a blanket conveyance clause, commonly referred to as

the ‘Mother Hubbard Clause.’ Texas courts have continued to uphold the validity of Mother


APPELLANT’S BRIEF
12 of 35
Hubbard clauses but only as they pertain to small adjacent strips. The court in Peacock v.

Schroeder, 846 S.W.2d 905, 911 (Civ. App. San Antonio, 1993) affirmed the long line of

decisions when it held, “The purpose of a Mother Hubbard, or catch-all, clause is merely to

prevent the leaving of small unleased pieces or strips of land . . . which may exist without the

knowledge of one or both of the parties by reason of incorrect surveying, careless location of

fences, or other mistake." Sun Oil Co. v. Bennett, 125 Tex. 540, 84 S.W.2d 447, 452 (1935);

See also, 1 H. Williams & C. Meyers, Oil and Gas Law § 221 (1992). These clauses make

evident the intention of the grantor to include within the lease not only the land described by

metes and bounds, but also any adjoining land mistakenly excluded. Sun Oil Co. v. Burns, 125

Tex. 549, 84 S.W.2d 442, 444 (1935); Windsor v. Loyd, 191 S.W.2d 521, 523 (Tex. Civ. App.-

-Texarkana 1945, writ ref'd) In a letter dated March 2, 2011(CLR at 938, Tab N) Wagoner &

Brown, the oil and gas producer of the mineral interests subject to this appeal, wrote that even

after consulting an independent law firm, they continued to have concerns regarding the

validity of the conveyance. The letter stated that the vague descriptions did not properly

identify or describe the land. It also stated that the wording that conveyed all interests in

Harrison County was not adequate to do so “since the courts have held that Mother Hubbard

Clauses which are in fine print, may only apply to small adjacent strips.” (CLR at 938, Tab N)

It is a well-established tenet that a Mother Hubbard clause is not intended to be used to an

interest that is not adequately described in the conveyance. In Smith v. Allison, 157 Tex. 220,

301 S.W.2d 608, 611 (1956), the court held that a deed was considered ambiguous when a

“catch-all” clause conveyed a substantially greater interest than the specific grant and when the

amount paid for that conveyance appeared to relate only to the mineral interest specifically

APPELLANT’S BRIEF
13 of 35
described. Accordingly, the court noted that "the deed under question contain[ed] material

inconsistent provisions that render[ed] it uncertain as to the property conveyed." Id at 612.

This rule effectively prohibiting such "cover-all" clauses from conveying substantial property

interest continues to be affirmed by the courts. In Jones v. Colle, 727 S.W.2d 262, 263 (Tex.

1987) the court upheld the longstanding position that “a Mother Hubbard clause would only

serve to cover property not described in the deed when the other property consists of small

unleased piece or strips of land which may exist without the knowledge of one or both of the

parties.” Id at 263. Referring back to the 1935 case of Sun Oil Co. v. Bennett, [125 Tex. 540]

84 S.W.2d 447 (Tex. 1935) the court in Colle reiterated:

       We have found no other case in which this Court has applied any other rule or has
       construed such a clause to convey large bodies of land in addition to that
       specifically described and surely not so where the clause was held to convey
       considerably more land than that specifically described.

In J. Hiram Moore, Ltd. v. Greer, 172 S.W.3d 609 (Tex. 2005) the court continued to affirm its

prior rulings that “catch-all” language could not in effect convey substantial interests in

property not appropriately described in a conveyance. The Greer court, citing Colle, ruled that:

       “the longstanding rule in Texas that a [catch-all] clause, like the one at issue
       here, can only convey small interests that are clearly contemplated within the
       more particularly described conveyance, and they are not effective to convey a
       significant property interest not adequately described in the deed or clearly
       contemplated by the language of the conveyance.” Greer at 613

The fact situation in Greer is analogous to the case now before this court. As in Greer, Mr.

Mills and Ms. Cope contend they had no intention of conveying all of the property interest

(CLR at 971 and 983) now claimed by Appellee by virtue of the Mother Hubbard language

(catch-all language) (CLR at 394) In both his Motion for Summary Judgment (CLR at 392)


APPELLANT’S BRIEF
14 of 35
and his Second Supplemental Motion for Summary Judgment (CLR at 1796), Appellee argued

that the Mother Hubbard clause entitled him to all the property interest he now claims. In the

conveyances, this cover all language is found in extremely small print and states “Grantor

hereby conveys to Grantee all of the minerals, royalty, overriding royalty interest owned by

Grantor in Harrison County, whether or not same is herein above correctly described.” (CLR at

18, Tab A and CLR at 21, Tab B) The belief that a Mother Hubbard clause can convey a

substantial interest is erroneous, especially when the conveyance in question contains property

descriptions. The argument found in the concurring opinion of Justice McCall in Smith v.

Allison at 616, is especially instructive in our case. Justice McCall wrote:

       When such a "Mother Hubbard" provision is used alone in an instrument, it
       conveys all the land owned by the grantor within the designated survey, county,
       city or other area. But when such a provision follows the description of a specific
       tract or tracts, it is ordinarily the purpose of such provision to bring within the
       conveyance small strips of land bordering the described tract or tracts which may
       not be included because of faulty description or may have been acquired by adverse
       possession. Under these circumstances the "Mother Hubbard" provision should be
       considered as supplemental to the specific description of the particular tract which
       is the primary subject of the conveyance, and such provision should not be
       regarded as an independent description of any tract wholly separate and distinct
       from the particularly described tract unless the parties have clearly indicated in the
       instrument that such was their intention.

Not only does Appellee rely upon the mistaken premise that the Mother Hubbard Clause can

convey large interests but he also attempted to use the small print and language to secure a

greater interest than that what was conveyed, which is impermissible.

       The prevailing view that a Mother Hubbard clause should only serve to cover property

not described in the deed when that omitted property consists of small unleased pieces or strips

of land which may exist without the knowledge of one or both of the parties. Using it


APPELLANT’S BRIEF
15 of 35
otherwise is in violation of this well established course of law.

       This Honorable Court should reverse and render judgment in favor of Appellant, in that

pursuant to the case law set forth above the Mother Hubbard/catch all/blanket clause was not

meant to convey large tracts of land.

                                      III.
     There is a material question fact as to what property was conveyed.

       Appellant and Appellee disagree over what mineral interests were conveyed. Appellee

argues that Cope and Mills conveyed everything they owned in Harrison County; however,

Appellants argue that was never their intent. The trial court erred when it granted Appellee’s

Motion for Summary Judgement because a question of fact exists. The standard for review for

a summary judgment is well established. See Nixon v. Mr. Prop. Mgmt. Co., 690 S.W.2nd 546,

548 (Tex. 1985); McAfee, Inc. v. Agilysys, Inc., 316 S.W.3rd 820, 825 (Tex. App.--Dallas

2010, no pet.). In deciding whether a disputed material fact exists precluding summary

Judgment, evidence favorable to the nonmovant will be taken as true. Id, 690. When reviewing

the issues presented, the appellate court "must consider all the evidence in the light most

favorable to the nonmovant, indulging all reasonable inferences in favor of the nonmovant, and

determine whether the movant proved that there were no genuine issues of material fact and

that it was entitled to judgment as a matter of law." Moon Royalty, Llc, v. Boldrick Partners,

244 S.W.3d 391, 393-94 (Tex. App.-- Eastland, 2007, no pet.), (citing Nixon v. Mr. Prop.

Mgmt. Co., 690 S.W.2d 546 (Tex. 1985) The standard of review for TEX. R. CIV P. 166a(i) is

one in which the court considers the evidence in the light most favorable to the nonmovant and

disregarded all contrary evidence. Bosque Asset Corp. v. Greenberg, 19 S.W.3d 514 (Tex.


APPELLANT’S BRIEF

App.--Eastland, 2000); Grant v. Southwestern Electric Power Company, 20 S.W.3d 764 (Tex.

App.--Eastland 1999 no pet'n); Moore v. K Mart Corporation. 981 S.W.2d 266 (Tex. App.--

San Antonio 1998, no pet'n); Jackson v. Fiesta Mart, Inc., 979 S.W.2d 68 (Tex. --Austin 1998,

no pet'n). The courts accept as true evidence in favor of the nonmovant and indulge every

reasonable inference and resolve all doubts in favor of the nonmovant. El Chico Corporation

v. Poole, 732 S.W.2d 306 (Tex. 1987) Evidence is apparent that there is a disputed material

fact as to what land, if any was actually conveyed.

       First, as set out in the affidavits of Mr. Mills and Ms. Cope, it was never their intent to

convey everything they owned in the county. (CLR at 971 and 983) Second, the conveyances

themselves reflect that there never was an agreement to convey all the interests of Mills/Cope

to Appellee. The conveyances found at (CLR at 18 and CLR at 21), state in part “Grantor

agrees to execute any supplemental instrument requested by Grantee for a more complete

description of said land.” If it was not the intent of the parties to convey only what they had

specifically described, why would they have included a provision like this? In the alternative,

if they had intended to convey everything they owned, a provision requesting supplementation

would have been superfluous. In reference to a similar provision, the court in Smith v. Allison,

at 618, asks, “How would the need for the correction of the particular description ever come

about if the parties did not intend to contract only with respect to the lands particularly

described?”

       A question of fact remains concerning the existence of an agreement to convey all the

interest of Appellant to Appellee and this Honorable Court should remand the case to the trial

APPELLANT’S BRIEF
17 of 35
court for a trial on the facts.

                                               IV.
  A question of fact remains due to the ambiguity surrounding the dispute
           over what property was conveyed in the conveyance.

        The parties disagree as to what the legal description is of the land conveyed. The

conveyances before this court contain traditional property descriptions that are found following

the words, “All of those certain tracts or parcels of land out of the following surveys in Harrison

County, Texas described as follows: . .. .” Typically, the property descriptions follow

immediately after this wording. In this case, the deeds follow customary practice and reference

several sections of land. There is also a modified Mother Hubbard clause. In addition to the basic

clause, Appellee included the words “Grantor hereby conveys to Grantor all of the mineral,

royalty, and overriding royalty interest owned by Grantor in Harrison County, whether or not same

is herein above correctly described.” (CLR at 18, Tab A and CLR at 21, Tab B) The latter

description contains a substantially greater interest in property. Rather than refining the primary

property descriptions, the Mother Hubbard clause has added a conflicting property description.

According to Appellee, the documents only contain one property description, which is located in

the Mother Hubbard clause and it conveys total interest in Harrison County. He also claims it was

the intent of the Grantors to convey their entire interest in Harrison County. However, Mr. Mills

and Ms. Cope stated in their affidavits that it was not their intent to convey everything they owned

in the county. (CLR at 971 and 983) If a deed is subject to two or more reasonable

interpretations, it is ambiguous. Columbia Gas Transmission Corp. v. New Ulm Gas, Ltd., 940

S.W.2d 587, 589 (Tex. 1996) The proper use of the “catch-all” language which Appellee relies

upon was discussed supra. (Referencing J. Hiram Moore, Ltd. v. Greer) The court indicated that

APPELLANT’S BRIEF
18 of 35
if there is an ambiguity, then a jury should hear evidence and determine the intent of the parties.

Greer, at 614. In addition, it is odd that the controlling property description would be buried

amongst legal jargon in small print, rather be located in large print at the top center of the

document. Obviously, a question exists as to which is the proper land description.

        The trial court erred in granting Appellee’s Motion for Summary Judgement because it is

unclear as to what property was actually conveyed; thereby a question of fact remains. The case

should be reversed and remanded for a trial on the merits.

                                                  V.
Questions of material fact exist concerning the actual possession and control of
  the mineral interests based upon the discrepancies between the judicially
   admitted documents provided by Appellee and the subsequently sworn
                             Affidavit by Appellee.

        Several questions of material fact were raised by the documents produced by the Appellee

during the discovery process and the affidavit executed by James H. Davis. (CLR 463-466) In

Appellee’s Motion for Summary Judgement, Davis claimed that “JD Minerals and/or JDMI, LLC

has been in actual, open, notorious, exclusive, hostile and adverse possession of interests made the

basis of this lawsuit, claiming under deeds registered since 1991.” (CLR 465) In other words,

Appellee swore under oath, in an Affidavit, that he had complete possession of the interests since

1991.

        Noteworthy is Exhibit “A” of the Declaration of Unit, Moore # 1 Gas Unit which listed the

names of the individuals included in said unit. (CLR at 916-918) On the third page of the

document, it specifies: 1)the name of James Hammond Mills who leased to W. M. Beasley, Jr. on

October 3, 1999; and, the name of Virginia Rose Mitchell Cope who also leased to W. M.



APPELLANT’S BRIEF
19 of 35
Beasley, Jr. on October 18, 1999. (CLR at 918) This Declaration of Unit stated in part,

“Winchester Production Company et al is the owner of the legal and/or equitable and beneficial

title to oil, gas and mineral leases . . . .” (CLR at 916) This Unit of Declaration was produced by

Appellee in his Response to Discovery is Bates stamped: DAVIS 92, 93, 94. (CLR at 916-918)

This document affirmatively listed Mills and Cope as mineral owners which controverts the

statement that Appellee had total possession of the mineral interests.

       On February 23, 2011, Appellee sent out a letter to several individuals including

Appellant, stating in part “JD Minerals purchased 100% of all the interest located in Harrison

County, Texas held in the names of Dan G. Capers, Virginia Rose Mitchell, and James Hammon

Mills.” (CLR at 356, Tab M) At that time, Appellee failed to disclose certain crucial facts

concerning the true ownership of the mineral interest. For instance, Appellee did not reveal that

he had sent a letter on June 16, 2005 to Virginia Rose Mills Cope a/k/a Virginia Rose Mitchell

informing her that they were withdrawing their offer to pay $250.00 per net mineral acre, because

upon further review of the title, they found that she had previously sold her interest to another

party. (CLR 358, Tab G) At that time, Appellee also failed to disclose that he had sent a letter to

Virginia Rose Mills Cope a/k/a Virginia Rose Mitchell on November 21, 2005, “offering to buy

her mineral or royalty interest by identifying your interest, preparing the paperwork and paying

you up front.” (CLR 359, 360, Tab H) Attached to the November 21, 2005 letter was a

Conditional Draft in the amount of $45.00. A closer review of this document reveals that, “This

draft is drawn to pay for that certain Universal, County-Wide Sale, Conveyance and Assignment

of Mineral and Royalty Interests (the “Conveyance”), covering all of Grantor’s royalty interests in

HARRISON County, Texas.” (CLR 359, Tab H) Enclosed with this letter was a document

APPELLANT’S BRIEF
20 of 35
entitled “Universal County-Wide Sale, Conveyance, and Assignment of Mineral and Royalty

Interests. This document specified that it included “all (100%) of the oil, gas and other minerals,

in, on and under, and may be produced, severed, sold and/or marketed from any and all lands”

which included all mineral interests and royalty interests. (CLR 360, Tab H) The first document,

to the landowner, states it is a royalty interest and the second document, to be filed with the

County Clerk, claims it is a mineral and royalty interest. This is exactly the pattern and practice

that Appellee has used over the years. Note the letter and draft are both signed by James H.

Davis.

         In the letter of February 23, 2011, and at times subsequent, Appellee also failed to disclose

that they had sent several other documents to Virginia Rose Mills Cope a/k/a Virginia Rose

Mitchell indicating that Appellee was operating under the belief that she still owned mineral

interests in Harrison County, Texas:

         Letter/form dated September 15, 2008, asking permission to obtain information as to
         all the mineral and royalty interest she owned in Harrison County, Texas. (CLR at 361,
         Tab K);

         Letter dated October 31, 2008, withdrew Appellee’s offer to pay $7,260.00. Stating, “in
         reviewing title information, JDMI, L.L.C. found you have sold your mineral and royalty
         interest prior to date.” (CLR at 362, Tab L); and,

         Letter dated July 19, 2011, admitting knowledge that she had already sold all her interest
         already to another company. (CLR at 363, Tab R)

In the letter of February 23, 2011, Appellee also failed to disclose that on November 26, 2007,

they had sent a letter to James Hammond Mills stating they were purchasing his interest for

$4,817.43. (CLR 364, Tab I) These documents indicate that Appellee thought Cope and Mills

retained possession and control of their mineral interests in Harrison County.


APPELLANT’S BRIEF
21 of 35
       The documents set forth in Tab G, H, I, K, L, and R are all unrecorded instruments

because they were not filed with the County Clerk’s Office in Harrison County, Texas. Section

13.001(b) of the Texas Property Code, in regards to Validity of Unrecorded Instrument, states,

“The unrecorded instrument is binding on a party to the instrument, on the party's heirs, and on a

subsequent purchaser who does not pay a valuable consideration or who has notice of the

instrument.”

       Appellee may argue that the above documents are not proper unrecorded instruments;

however, said documents were produced in discovery by the Appellee. Note the bate stamp at the

bottom of the document. A party’s production of a document in response to written discovery

authenticates the document for use against that party in any pretrial proceeding or at trial. See,

Tex. R. Civ. P. 193.7; Blanche v. First Nationwide Mortg. Corp., 74 S.W.3d 444, 451-52 (Tex.

App.--Dallas 2002, no pet.) These documents are an admission by a party-opponent, Tex. R.

Evid. 801(e)(2), and are not hearsay. Any statement by a party-opponent is admissible against that

party. Reid Road Municipal Utility Dist. No. 2 v. Speedy Stop Food Stores, Ltd., 337 S.W.3d 846,

858 (Tex. 2011)

       In addition, these some of the documents were also automatically admitted due to

Appellee’s Responses to Admissions.(CLR 845, Tab C, No. 9, 10, 14, 15, 16, 19, and 22.)

Admissions made under TEX. R. CIV. P. 198 are more than evidence of admitted matters. They

are judicial admissions of the admitted matters. As long as an admission stands unretracted, the

party making it is not permitted to introduce evidence to contradict the matter. National Farmers

Organization v. Smith, 526 S.W.2d 759, 765 (Civ. App.--Corpus Christi 1975, no writ). Some

courts have noted that a fact admitted under the rules is of ''higher dignity'' than testimony and that

APPELLANT’S BRIEF
22 of 35
such an admission is the same as an admission made in the pleadings. Republic Bankers Life

Insurance Co. v. Wisdom, 488 S.W.2d 470, 472 (Civ. App.--Fort Worth 1972, ref. n.r.e.). An

admission once admitted is a judicial admission, and a party may not then introduce testimony to

controvert it. Marshall v. Vise, 767 S.W.2d 699, 700 (Tex. 1989) In Appellant’s Response to

Motion for Summary Judgment (CLR at 868-946), Appellant objected to the evidence of Appellee

based on the prior admissions by the Appellee and the documents produced by the Appellee. In

Appellant’s Response to Appellee’s Second Supplemental Motion for Summary Judgment (CLR

at 1695-1771), Appellant objected to the evidence of Appellee based on the prior admissions by

the Appellee and the documents produced by the Appellee. The court should sustain any timely

made objection made to evidence which attempts to controvert the admitted fact. Marshall, at 699

The trial erred when it permitted the admission of Appellee’s Affidavit because it had evidence

that directly contradicted the facts Appellee had admitted in his Responses to Admission.

       This Honorable Court should remand the case to the trial court in that there are questions

of fact, to be decided by the trier of fact, based on the prior admissions of the Appellee, and the

documents that were produced by the Appellee in discovery.

                                       VI.
  Questions of material fact concerning possession and control of the mineral
   interests exist based upon the discrepancies between the official Harrison
     County documents and the subsequently sworn Affidavit by Appellee.

               As referenced above, Appellee signed an affidavit stating that he has been

possession of the minerals since 1991. In Appellant’s Response to Appellee’s Second

Supplemental Motion for Summary Judgment (CLR at 1695-1772), he included records from the

Harrison County Clerk which provided evidence that both James Hammond Mills and Virginia

APPELLANT’S BRIEF
23 of 35
Cope have issued numerous conveyances including oil and gas leases and mineral deeds for more

than twenty (20) years. (CLR 1732, 1733, 1735, Tab S) In these records, it is also shows

conclusively that Mills and Cope have regularly paid taxes on the minerals of said property. (CLR

at 1744-1753, Tab T) This is in direct conflict with the affidavit of Appellee and as such raises a

material issue of fact as to the actual ownership of the minerals.

               This Honorable Court should remand the case to the trial court in that there are

questions of fact, to be decided by the trier of fact, based on the affidavit of the Appellee, and the

documents from the County Clerk and Tax Assessor of Harrison County, Texas.

                                            VII.
  A material question of fact remains due to the cumulative nature of Appellee’s prior bad
                                            acts.

       Rule 404(b) of the Texas Rules of Evidence states that evidence of other crimes, wrongs or

acts is not admissible to prove the character of a person in order to show action in conformity

therewith. TEX. R. CIV. EVID 404(b) The rule, however, does allow such evidence to be

admitted for other purposes, such as proof of motive, opportunity, intent, preparation, plan,

knowledge, identity, or absence of mistake or accident. Id.

       The rules of evidence allow the admission of evidence of the habit of a person, or of the

routine practice of an organization, if the evidence is relevant to prove that the conduct of the

person or organization on a particular occasion was in conformity with the habit or routine

practice. See TEX. R. EVID. 406; see also Durbin v. Dal-Briar Corp., 871 S.W.2d 263, 268 (Tex.

App.--Corpus Christi 1994, writ denied) For testimony of the routine practice of an organization

to be admissible, it must show a regular response to a repeated specific situation. Pacesetter Corp.

v. Barrickman, 885 S.W.2d 256, 263 (Tex. App.--Tyler 1994, no writ); Mediacomp, Inc. v.

APPELLANT’S BRIEF
24 of 35
Capital Cities Communication, 698 S.W.2d 207, 212 (Tex. App.--Houston [1st Dist.] 1985, no

writ) (stating that evidence of the routine practice of an organization is relevant to prove that the

conduct of the organization on a particular occasion was in conformity with the routine practice).

       In response to Appellant’s claim that the Appellee continued to make offers to lease the

Deed. If Appellee would alter the effective date on a division order, could he not also

intentionally mislead the Grantors into believing that they were imparting a one year term royalty

                              Survey, A-856, and the G. W. Munden Survey, A-857, Hamson
                              County, Texas.


Gentleman:

By Gas Unit Designation dated Dcicember 10, 2007, as amended, effective December 12, 2007
(Volume 3779, Page 321 ofthe Official Records ofHarrison county, Texas), Wagner & Brown, Ltd.
et al created the J. W. Harrison Estate Gas Unit No. 1 (the "Captioned Unitj, comprising 694.5
acres out of the G. W. Petty Survey, A-582, the G. W. Munden Survey, A-856, and the G. W.
Munden Survey, A-857, Harrison County, Texas. Each ofyou own or claim mineral interests in Unit
Tract Two, comprising 283.917 acres out ofa 291.7 acre tract ofland, more or less. These interests
are currently covered by oil and gas leases in favor of Wagner & Brown, Ltd., which have been or
will be pooled into the Captioned Unit

Wagner & Brown, Ltd. bas drilled and completed the J. W. Harrison Estate Gas Unit No. I Well No.
I within the Captioned Unit, which produces from the Cotton Valley Sand Fonnatinn, and is in the
process of preparing division orders in order to begin payment of royalties on production from such
well. However, prior to making disbursement of proceeds of production attn"butable to the interests




                                                  932
owned or claimed by you in the Captioned Unit, certain title issues must be resolved.

By Declaration ofUnitdated March 12, 1979 (Volume 881, Page290), Amoco Production Company
et al created the 704 acre John Harrison "BH Gas Unit, which included Unit Tract Two of the
Captioned Unit; however, said unit only covered those deplbs from the surface down to the base of
the Travis Peak formation, which lies above the producing formation in the Captioned Unit.

By Minernl and Royalty Conveyance dated September 13, 1991 (Volume 1286, Page 169). Dan G.
Capers conveyed all of his mineral interest in 704 acres out of the G. W. Petty Survey, A-582 eta!,
known as the Amoco Producing Company-John Harrison "B" Unit, and other lands to J D Minerals
and JEH Interests.

By Mineral and Royalty Conveyauce dated September 25, 1991 (Volume 1287, Page 331 ), Virginia
Rose Mitchell conveyed all of her mineral interest in 704 acres out ofthe G. W. Petty Survey, A-582
el al, known as the Amoco Producing Company-John Harrison "B" Unit, and other lands to J D
Minerals.

By Mineral and Royalty Conveyance dated October 1, 1991 (Volume 1287, Page 530), James
Hammond Mills conveyed all ofhis mineral interest in the John Harrisoa "BH Unit and other land to
J D Minerals.

By Mineral Deed dated October21, 1994 (Volume373,PagcS8S), Virginia Rose Mills Cope, whom
we have presumed was one and the same person as Virginia Rose Mi$chell, conveyed her mineral
interest in Unit Tract Two of the Captioned Unit to Charles B. Home, who by Mineral Deed dated
Detemher4, 1996 (Volmne 1586, Page 339), conveyed said interest to Mark J. Mueller.

Because of the depth limitation applicable to the John Harrison "BH Unit, we have interpreted the
above-noted mineral and royalty conveyances in favor of J D Minerals and JEH Interests as being
limited to depths down to, but not below, the base ofthe Travis Peak formation. This being the case,
we have credited MarkJ. Mueller with ownership of deep rights byvirtueoftbeDecember4, 1996
Mineral Deed referenced above. In addition, we have credited Dan G. Capers and James Hammond
Mills with ownership ofdeep rights which they retained following theh- conveyances to J D Minerals
andJEH lnterestsintheSeptember 13,1991 DeedandtheOctoberl, 1991 Deedrefereocedabove.

We recognize that it is possible that the parties intended for said conveyances to apply to all depths.
Therefore, it is necessary that each ofyou enter into correction deeds or sjipulations ofinterest which
clearly reflect the intent of the parties to either convey or retain their interests in those depths below
the base of the Travis Peak formation. Any such correction deed or stipulation of interest should be
filed for record in Harrison County, Texas, and furnished to the undersigned. Until such correction
deeds or stipulations of interest have been executed, recorded aod furnished to the undersigned,
proceeds of production from the Captioned Unit attributable to the interests of James Hammond
Mills and Mark J. Mueller, as indicated below, will be placed in suspense.

In addition, until this matter is resolved, proceeds of production ~butable to the interest ofDan G.
Capers, as indicated below, will be placed in suspense, with that portion of his interest acquired




                                                     933
subsequent to September 13, 1991, not being placed in suspense.

The interest of James Hammond Mills which is to be suspended is as follows:

James Hammond Mills
(1/3 X l/3      X   J/2 X J/2 X royalty X 283.9!7/694.5)

The interest of Mark J. Mueller which is to be suspended is as follows:

Gentleman:

            Please reference the Jetter dated May 9, 2008 from Wagner & Brown. Ltd. and the letter dated February 23.
2011 from JD Minerals.
            Please be advised that we have carefully reviewed this matter again with the legal firm of Labanowski &
Associates of Houston. Texas. who examined title to the captioned tract on behalf of Wagner & Brown, Ltd. Their
concerns with the interpretation ofthe intent of the parties to the deeds and tbe lands actually covered by the deeds
in question, as set forth in our May 9 letter to you, still remain unchanged. The attorney for Labanowski &
Associates points out that they have a number of concerns relative to the intent of the panics to these deeds.
il'!cludir.g \'s:gue descriptions: .,,,hich do not spedfica!ly refcreD.::~ ao identifiable ur.it, Gr taGCl of land and the «:kpths
actuall),. conveyed. In addition, they question if the provision dealing with conveyjng everything in Harrison County.
is sufficient to do so. especially in view of the vague descriptions; since the courts have held that Mother Hubbard
clauses whicb are in the fine print, may only apply to small adjacent strips.
            In view of the foregoing Wagner&. Brown, Ltd. intends to continue to hold the proceeds in suspense, as
noted in our May 9. 2008 letter until such time as the parties have furnished us with either correction deeds or a
stipulation of interest. which instruments must be acceptable to our examining attonley.

Sincerely.
