Lasater v. Franklin Life Insurance Co.
Opinion of the Court
OPINION
This is an appeal from a summary judgment. This case is a companion case to our Cause Number 6191, styled Lasater et-ux., et al., Appellants v. Franklin Life Insurance Company, Appellant, and the disposition of this case is controlled by our opinion, 471 S.W.2d 95, this day rendered in that case. With the exception of the matters hereinafter set forth, identical questions are presented by both appeals, both were briefed and orally argued by the same counsel and were argued jointly. However, the cases have not been consolidated, either in the trial Court or this Court so that it is necessary to make an independent disposition of each case.
The only differences in this case and cause number 6191 are the provisions in the note and deed of trust relating to attorney’s fees and interest after maturity.
In this case, the note provides for “a reasonable attorney’s fee”. The deed of
We therefore reverse the judgment of the trial Court and remand this cause for further proceedings in accordance with our opinion in Cause Number 6191.
Reversed and remanded.
