Vance v. My Apartment Steak House of San Antonio, Inc.green
tex · 1984 · cited in 1 Texas opinions naming this issue, 2022–2022
1 sentence

2022“In a substantial performance claim, the contractor must prove three elements to prevail: its substantial performance, the amount unpaid under the contract, and ‘the cost of remedying the defects due to his errors or omissions.’” Id., quoting Vance v. My Apartment Steak House of San Antonio, Inc., 677 S.W.2d 480, 483 (Tex. 1984). 9 But for much the same reasons already noted, the record does not support Nelson’s claim of substantial performance.

Kass v. State green
texcrimapp · 1981

2016Because we conclude that the State’s pleadings are insufficient in light of the Court of Criminal Appeals’s decision in Kass v. State, 642 S.W.2d 463 (Tex.Crim.App.1982) (op. on reh’g), we cannot, say that .the trial court, erred in granting Nelson’s motion to quash.

2016The focus of Nelson’s motion to quash was the amended information’s use of the words “sexual contact.” Nelson contended that, under Kass v. State, 642 S.W.2d 463 (Tex.Crim.App.1982) (op. on reh’g), the use of the words.“sexual contact” did not give Nelson notice of what “sexual contact” she was alleged to have solicited.
