PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS v Statement of the Case Relators represent Deborah Patterson (Howard) Goughnour, remainder beneficiary of the Deborah Patterson Howard Trust, in the matter styled In re the Deborah Patterson Howard Trust, Cause No. 11-2216-C, pending before the 241st District Court of Smith County, Texas, a suit for damages involving claims that the real party in interest, Robert H. Patterson, Jr., breached his fiduciary duty as trustee of the Deborah Patterson Howard Trust. On April 22, 2014, Respondent, the Hon.

Jack Skeen, Jr., presiding judge of the 241st District Court, sanctioned Relators under Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 215.3; on December 5, 2014, Respondent ordered Relators to appear before him on January 21, 2015 to show cause why they should not be held in contempt for not complying with the April 22, 2014 sanctions order.

Relators seek relief from these orders.

Statement of the Jurisdiction The Court of Appeals has jurisdiction over this mandamus proceeding under Sections 22.201(m) and 22.221(b)(1) of the Texas Government Code.

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS vi Issues Presented I. Was it an abuse of discretion for Respondent to sanction Relators for conduct that is not a violation of any discovery rule or order?

II. Since Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 215.3 only permits sanctions against “parties,” was it an abuse of discretion for Respondent to sanction the attorneys (who are not “parties”) under this rule?

III. Without a relationship between the sanctioned conduct and four of the five Relators, was it an abuse of discretion for Respondent to sanction all five Relators jointly and severally?

IV. Did Respondent abuse his discretion by awarding attorney’s fees without the evidence required by the Texas Supreme Court in Long v. Griffin and El Apple I, Ltd. v. Olivas?

V. Did Respondent abuse his discretion by failing to consider less stringent sanctions as required by the Texas Supreme Court in TransAmerican Natural Gas Corp. v. Powell and American Flood Research, Inc. v. Jones?

VI. Did Respondent abuse his discretion by disregarding Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 191.2 and the Smith County Local Rules?

VII. Do Relators have an adequate appellate remedy since they are not “parties” to this litigation and have no independent right of appeal, and since Respondent (despite continuing the case without any new trial setting) deliberately ordered the sanctions paid prior to final judgment and has since issued a “show cause” order?

VIII. Does Respondent’s abuse of discretion constitute an exceptional case warranting mandamus review and intervention?

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS vii Statement of Facts In July 2011, real party in interest Robert H. Patterson, Jr., (the “Trustee”) initiated the matter styled In re the Deborah Patterson Howard Trust, Cause No. 11- 2216-C pending before the 241st District Court of Smith County, Texas (the “underlying action”), filed his resignation as trustee of the Deborah Patterson Howard Trust (the “Trust”), and requested that the Court approve his final accounting and discharge him from all liability. [R. TAB 1]. Deborah Patterson (Howard) Goughnour, the Trust’s remainder beneficiary, (“Deborah”) intervened and brought counterclaims against the Trustee for breach of his fiduciary duty arising out of his misusing the Trust’s money to fund a speculative real estate venture, known as Bighorn Ventures III, Ltd., in which the Trustee had a personal, financial stake (“Bighorn”). [R. TAB 2].

On May 29, 2013, Craig Daugherty (“Mr. Daugherty”), one of the attorneys representing Deborah, sent an email to Janie Malone and Jerry Hill at Central Title Company seeking copies of certain documents (the “Requested Documents”). [R. TAB 5, EX. B, at 4]. Attached to this email was a document entitled “Subpoena to Appear and Produce Documents” (the “Purported Subpoena”) which requested the title company’s custodian of records “to produce and permit inspection and copying” of the Requested Documents in the courtroom of the 401st District Court of Smith County, Texas on June 25, 2013 or, alternatively, to produce the Requested

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 1 Documents along with a business records affidavit by May 28, 2013. [R. TAB 5, EX. A, EX. B at 4-11]. The Requested Documents concerned “real estate transactions for which Central Title Company served as the closing agent” and which involved the Trustee, entities owned by the Trustee, or entities which had conducted business with the Trust. [R. TAB 5 at 30-31, EX. A at 3]. Mr. Daugherty’s email requested that Mr. Hill or Ms. Malone call him to discuss. [R. TAB 5, EX. B at 4].

Mr. Hill called Mr. Daugherty and arrangements were made for Central Title Company to voluntarily produce certain documents. [R. TAB 5 at 32-33; TAB 7 at 30- 35]. Indeed, no one from Central Title Company appeared in the courtroom of the 401st District Court of Smith County, Texas on June 25, 2013 or called Mr. Daugherty to question whether such appearance was required. [R. TAB 7 at 37-39].

Instead, around the beginning of July 2013, Central Title Company began voluntarily providing the Requested Documents as Mr. Hill and Mr. Daugherty agreed. [R. TAB 5 at 32-33, EX. B at 12-14; TAB 7 at 31-32].

Subsequently, on July 8, 2013, without conferring with Deborah’s counsel, the Trustee’s lawyers moved to quash the Purported Subpoena and for sanctions. [R. TAB 3; TAB 5 at 35, 57; TAB 6 at 28, 31]. On July 10, 2013, Mr. Daugherty wrote the Trustee’s counsel that he would retract the Purported Subpoena, serve Central Title Company with an actual subpoena for the Requested Documents and agreed that the Trustee’s motion to quash would apply to this actual subpoena. [R. TAB 5, EX. C].

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 2 Additionally, he provided the Trustee’s counsel with access to all of the documents which Central Title Company had thus far produced. [Id.]. Nonetheless, the Trustee did not withdraw his motion for sanctions.

On September 12, 2013, September 19, 2013, and November 13, 2013, the Respondent conducted a hearing on the Trustee’s motion. [R. TABS 5-7]. The Trustee presented no evidence that he had been harmed or prejudiced in any way by the Purported Subpoena beyond Relators simply having received some of the Requested Documents from Central Title Company. [R. TAB 5 at 21, 37, 42-43, 47; TAB 7 at 10]. The Trustee did not offer into evidence any invoices for his attorneys’ fees or other written statements showing what services were performed, which attorney performed them and at what hourly rate, when they were performed or how much time the work required.1 Respondent did not grant (or even rule on) the Trustee’s motion to quash but nevertheless ruled that: “a procedure was used that in the Court’s view—and certainly, y’all have a difference of opinion about—difference of opinion, but in the Court’s view, a procedure was used that didn’t meet the requirements of the statute. And I’ll leave it at that… …the Court does find the rule was violated. The Court does find sanctions are in order. Attorney’s fees are ordered for what the Court Respondent at one point stated “I’ve got the attorney fee schedule I asked for.” [R. TAB 6 at 114].

And the Trustee’s counsel at one point stated “we have submitted a statement for fees….” [R. TAB at 70]. But no invoices or other documents supporting the testimony of the Trustee’s counsel were offered or admitted into evidence.

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 3 allowed for sanctions for. It’s up to the Court to try to reach what, in the Court’s view, is reasonable and necessary… …I’m going to award attorney’s fees as a sanction for a violation of the rule for a total of 35 hours at $400 an hour, which is a total of $14,000….” [R. TAB 7 at 82, 90-91]. On April 22, 2014, Respondent signed the Trustee’s proposed order (the “Sanctions Order”). [R. TAB 9].

The Sanctions Order finds that Relators “prepared, signed and sent a false trial Subpoena to Central Title Company dated May 28, 2013,” that Relators “sent the False Trial Subpoena in order to avoid compliance with Rules 176.2, 176.3(b), 199.2(b)(5), 200, and 205, which constitutes an abuse of the discovery process that is sanctionable under Rule 215.3,” and that “an appropriate sanction” is an award of attorney’s fees calculated at 35 hours at the rate of $400 per hour “which is reasonable and necessary”; it then orders Relators, jointly and severally, to pay $14,000 to the Trust no later than July 21, 2014. [Id.].

Relators filed their Motion to Modify Sanction Order on June 20, 2014 requesting that Respondent modify the Sanctions Order to defer payment until after rendition of a final judgment in the underlying action. [R. TAB 10]. Relators’ Motion to Modify Sanction Order was submitted for consideration on July 7, 2014;2 despite

“Motions shall state a date of submission at which time the Motion will be considered without a hearing, unless both a request for oral argument and a response are filed. The movant shall select the date of submission which shall be no sooner than the Monday following fifteen (15) days from

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 4 passage of the submission date, Respondent has not ruled either way on Relators’ request.

The trial of this cause has been continued five times, and there is now no trial setting at all. [R. TAB 7 at 103-09; TAB 12].

On September 17, 2014, the Trustee moved for an order holding Relators in contempt for failing to pay the attorneys’ fees awarded under the Sanctions Order. [R. TAB 13]. On December 5, 2014, Respondent signed a show cause order requiring Relators to appear in the courtroom of the 241st District Court of Smith County, Texas on January 21, 2015 at 9:00 a.m. “to then and there show cause why [Relators] have not complied with the [Sanctions Order].” [R. TAB 14].

Argument & Authorities As the parties seeking mandamus relief, Relators must show that Respondent abused his discretion and that they have no adequate remedy by appeal. Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 840 (Tex. 1992).

I. Respondent Abused His Discretion A trial court has no discretion in determining what the law is or applying the law to the facts. Huie v. DeShazo, 922 S.W.2d 920, 927-28 (Tex. 1996). A clear failure by the trial court to analyze or apply the law correctly (even if the issue is one

the date of filing, except on leave of Court. The motion will be submitted to the Court for ruling on that date or later.” LOCAL SMITH COUNTY RULES OF CIVIL TRIAL, Rule 2.3.

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 5 of first impression) constitutes an abuse of discretion. In re Ford Motor Co., 12- 0957, 2014 WL 2994622 (Tex. July 3, 2014); Chapa v. Garcia, 848 S.W.2d 667, 668 (Tex. 1992).

Imposing sanctions for discovery abuse requires the trial court, first, to find a direct relationship exists between offensive conduct and the sanction imposed and, second, to ensure the punishment fits the crime and is no more severe than necessary to satisfy its legitimate purposes of securing compliance with discovery rules, deterring other litigants from similar misconduct, and punishing violators.

TransAmerican Natural Gas Corp. v. Powell, 811 S.W.2d 913, 917 (Tex. 1991).

Respondent both misconstrued and misapplied the law in the Sanctions Order and, therefore, abused his discretion.

A. There Was No Discovery Abuse (Issue I) The first prong of the TransAmerican test requires the court to determine whether the underlying conduct actually constitutes an abuse of the discovery process. In re Ford Motor Co., 988 S.W.2d at 718. There is no discovery abuse here.

The Sanctions Order declares that Relators “sent a false trial Subpoena to Central Title Company….” [R. TAB 9, ¶¶1-2]. The Trustee argued and Respondent concluded that the Purported Subpoena abused the discovery process by requiring someone to appear at a trial or a hearing that didn’t exist. [R. TAB 5 at 9, 11]. But the Purported Subpoena makes no mention whatsoever of a trial or even a hearing; PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 6 indeed, its very title is “subpoena to appear and produce documents.” [R. TAB 5, EX. A] (emphasis added).

In any event, the Purported Subpoena did not satisfy the requirements to be a subpoena under Rule 176;3 it was not served by a sheriff or constable or non-party over 18 years of age, was not accompanied with a witness fee, and no return was filed with the trial court. [R. TAB 5 at 17; TAB 7 at 30-31]. Because it did not satisfy the requirements of Rule 176, it was not an enforceable subpoena. See Hough v. Johnson, 456 S.W.2d 775, 778 (Tex. Civ. App.—Austin 1970, no writ) (subpoena effective only if “all prerequisites to the issuance and service of the subpoena have been complied with”); see also Old Republic Ins. Co. v. Edwards, 01-10-00150-CV, 2011 WL 2623994 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] June 30, 2011, no pet.) (no valid subpoena where no return filed or witness fee tendered) and Grunauer v. Difilippo, 07-03-0149-CV, 2004 WL 111462 (Tex. App.—Amarillo Jan. 22, 2004, no pet.) (failure to comply with Rule 176.1 made subpoena legally insufficient).

Because it was not an enforceable subpoena, its legal effect was no more than a “pretty please” and Central Title Company’s compliance wholly voluntary.

See TEX. R. CIV. P. 176.5 (subpoena must be served by sheriff or constable of the State of Texas, or any person who is not a party and is 18 years of age or older; must be served with fees required by law; and proof of service must be made by filing either: (1) the witness’s signed written memorandum attached to the subpoena showing that the witness accepted the subpoena; or (2) a statement by the person who made the service stating the date, time, and manner of service, and the name of the person served).

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 7 Essentially, the Sanctions Order presupposes that requesting the voluntary sharing of information somehow violates the Rulesthat simply asking is some unforgiveable sin. The Texas Rules of Civil Procedure provide processes for and protections from compelled disclosure and production,4 but they do not prohibit obtaining information voluntarily shared. To interpret the Rules as Respondent has would unimaginably increase the cost of litigation since even “friendly” witnesses could not voluntarily provide evidence.

Fortunately, the Texas Supreme Court has not adopted such a costly restraint on obtaining voluntarily disclosed information from non-parties.

Rather than violating any Rule, Mr. Daugherty explained that he was seeking the voluntary production of documents together with a business records affidavit under Texas Rule of Evidence 902(10):5

See TEX. R. CIV. P. 205.1 (“A party may compel discovery from a nonparty—that is, a person who is not a party or subject to a party’s control—only by obtaining a court order under Rules 196.7, 202, or 204, or by serving a subpoena compelling: (a) an oral deposition; (b) a deposition on written questions; (c) a request for production of documents or tangible things, pursuant to Rule 199.2(b)(5) or Rule 200.1(b), served with a notice of deposition on oral examination or written questions; and (d) a request for production of documents and tangible things under this rule”) (emphasis added).

“Records or photocopies; admissibility; affidavit; filing. Any record or set of records or photographically reproduced copies of such records, which would be admissible under Rule 803(6) or (7) shall be admissible in evidence in any court in this state upon the affidavit of the person who would otherwise provide the prerequisites of Rule 803(6) or (7), that such records attached to such affidavit were in fact so kept as required by Rule 803(6) or (7), provided further, that such record or records along with such affidavit are filed with the clerk of the court for inclusion with the papers in the cause in which the record or records are sought to be used as evidence at least fourteen days prior to the day upon which trial of said cause commences, and provided the other parties to said cause are given prompt notice by the party filing same of the filing of such record or records

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 8 a form of a witness subpoena was drawn up and was sent to the records custodiannot served on the records custodian, not physically served, no witness fee attached, simply sent to the records custodian along with a business records affidavit. And they were given a choice; you can comply with the request for production of documents, voluntarily through the business records affidavit … if we have to we’ll subpoena the records. It’s your choice. The subpoena, it’s important to understand, was never being used to force production of documents. It wasn’t worth the paper it was typed on. [R. TAB 5 at 28]. Texas Rule of Evidence 902 supports a process for obtaining business records via voluntary production without the need for subpoena, deposition or deposition on written questions. [APPX. TAB C; R. TAB 8 at 2-4]. Indeed, the process embodied in Rule of Evidence 902 does not require prior notice of the request to the opposing party but only requires that notice of the intent to use the documents be served on the opposing party at least two weeks prior to trial. TEX. R. EVID. 902(10)(a).

Rather than violating any Rule, the process utilized by Mr. Daugherty is permitted by a Rule (i.e., Texas Rule of Evidence 902). In fact, this “pretty please” request for the voluntary production of documents under a Rule 902 affidavit— whereby the draft “subpoena” is mailed, faxed, or emailed to a records custodian

and affidavit, which notice shall identify the name and employer, if any, of the person making the affidavit and such records shall be made available to the counsel for other parties to the action or litigation for inspection and copying. The expense for copying shall be borne by the party, parties or persons who desire copies and not by the party or parties who file the records and serve notice of said filing, in compliance with this rule. Notice shall be deemed to have been promptly given if it is served in the manner contemplated by Rule of Civil Procedure 21a fourteen days prior to commencement of trial in said cause.” TEX. R. EVID. 902(10)(a).

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 9 with instructions regarding voluntarily providing documents (including, in some cases, a Rule 902 business records affidavit) but is not served under Rule 176.5(a) unless the records custodian’s policy or procedure requires it—is a very common practice in Texas, being sent hundreds of times (or more) each day. [R. TAB 6 at 22- 23; APPX. TAB E].6 Central Title Company did not require service of a subpoena; it voluntarily produced the Requested Documents.

Moreover, the Purported Subpoena itself contradicts the Sanctions Order’s finding of an attempt to “avoid compliance with Rules 176.2, 176.3(b), 199.2(b)(5), and 205.” Had the Purported Subpoena been an attempt to compel Central Title Company’s production of documents, it would absolutely have been permitted by Rules 176.2 and 176.3(b), because it would have required Central Title Company “to produce and permit inspection and copying…of documents or tangible things in their possession, custody or control,” and by Rules 205.1(d) and 205.3(b), which specifically permit the use of subpoenas to compel production of documents from non-parties.7 Rules 199.2(b)(5) and Rule 200which govern production of

Respondent requested that Mr. Daugherty brief the Rule 902 business records affidavit procedure for him. [R. TAB 6 at 113]. Mr. Daugherty’s detailed brief of Rule 902 business records affidavit practice is set forth in the Record. [R. TAB 8].

See TEX. R. CIV. P. 176.2 (“A subpoena must command the person to whom it is directed to do either or both of the following: (a) attend and give testimony at a deposition, hearing, or trial; (b) produce and permit inspection and copying of designated documents or tangible things in the possession, custody, or control of that person.”) (emphasis added); TEX. R. CIV. P. 176.3(b) (“A subpoena may not be used for discovery to an extent, in a manner, or at a time other than as provided by the rules governing discovery.”). TEX. R. CIV. P. 205.1(d) (“A party may compel

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 10 documents at a deposition and the process for deposition on written questions, respectivelyare not even applicable;8 Mr. Daugherty’s email was neither a deposition notice nor a request that Central Title Company submit to a deposition on written questions.

So, the Sanctions Order could not be based on a violation of Rules 199.2 or 200, because they are inapplicable. And, even had the Purported Subpoena been an enforceable subpoena, the Sanctions Order could not be based on Rules 176.2, 176.3(b), 205.1(d) or 205.3(b), because they authorize the discovery of documents from third parties via subpoena. In any event, the Sanctions Order cannot be based on any alleged attempt by Relators to “avoid compliance with Rules 176.2, 176.3(b), 199.2(b)(5), 200, and 205,” because there was no enforceable subpoena or attempt to serve one—these Rules simply do not apply to the Purported Subpoena.

discovery from a nonparty … by serving a subpoena compelling … a request for production of documents and tangible things under this rule.”); TEX. R. CIV. P. 205.3(b) (“The notice must state: (1) the name of the person from whom production or inspection is sought to be compelled; (2) a reasonable time and place for the production or inspection; and (3) the items to be produced or inspected ….”).

“A notice of intent to take an oral deposition must be served on the witness and all parties a reasonable time before the deposition is taken…A notice may include a request that the witness produce at the deposition documents or tangible things within the scope of discovery and within the witness's possession, custody, or control. If the witness is a nonparty, the request must comply with Rule 205 and the designation of materials required to be identified in the subpoena must be attached to, or included in, the notice. The nonparty's response to the request is governed by Rules and 205. When the witness is a party or subject to the control of a party, document requests under this subdivision are governed by Rules 193 and 196.” TEX. R. CIV. P. 199.2(a), (b)(5). “A party may take the testimony of any person or entity by deposition on written questions before any person authorized by law to take depositions on written questions.” Id., 200.1(a), et seq.

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 11 Respondent and the Trustee relied on Electronic Data Systems Corp. v. Tyson, 862 S.W.2d 728 (Tex. App.—Dallas 1993) for the proposition that using a subpoena with a non-existent trial date to acquire documents from a non-party constituted an abuse of discovery under Rule 215. [R. TAB 5 at 10]. Their reliance is misplaced.

In Electronic Data Systems Corp. v. Tyson, the trial court’s sanctions were overturned, because the Dallas Court of Appeals found that “the trial court’s actions do not meet the TransAmerican criteria” and that “the trial court abused its discretion….” Electronic Data Systems Corp. v. Tyson, 862 S.W.2d 728, 738-39 (Tex. App.—Dallas 1993, no writ).

To summarize, the Sanctions Order is based on Respondent’s determination that emailing a legally unenforceable request to voluntarily provide documents violated—and revealed Relators’ attempt to avoid complying with—inapplicable rules, all based on a prior trial court’s ruling that was reversed by the court of appeals. “Because the record does not support the trial court’s finding that [Relators’] conduct was an abuse of the discovery process…the trial court’s sanction order was not just.” In re Ford Motor Co., 988 S.W.2d at 718. And Respondent’s erroneous application of the law constitutes an abuse of discretion and a failure of the first TransAmerican prong. In re Ford Motor Co., 2014 WL 2994622; Huie, 922 S.W.2d at 927-28; Chapa, 848 S.W.2d at 668; Walker, 827 S.W.2d at 840; TransAmerican Natural Gas Corp., 811 S.W.2d at 917.

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 12 B. Rule 215.3 Does Not Support the Sanctions Order (Issue II) When a sanctions order names a specific rule or tracks a rule’s language, the appellate court is confined to determining whether sanctions are proper under that rule alone. American Flood Research, Inc. v. Jones, 192 S.W.3d 581, 583-84 (Tex. 2006). Here, the Sanctions Order purports to punish Relators for “an abuse of the discovery process that is sanctionable under Rule 215.3.” [R. TAB 9, ¶2].

However, Rule 215.3 applies only where “the court finds a party is abusing the discovery process.” TEX. R. CIV. P. 215.3 (emphasis added). Rule 215.3 does not provide a basis for sanctioning counsel. Compare TEX. R. CIV. P. 215.3 (trial court may sanction “a party” for abusing the discovery process) with TEX. R. CIV. P. 215.2(b)(2), (8) (trial court may sanction a party “or the attorney advising him” for disobeying a discovery order); see In re Ford Motor Co., 988 S.W.2d 714, 720-21 (Tex. 1998) (“When a trial court finds that a party has abused the discovery process, Rule 215(3) authorizes a trial court to impose an appropriate sanction…under Rule 215, the trial court must predicate its award of attorney’s fees on a party’s abuse of the discovery process”) (emphasis added); see also Jones v. American Flood Research, Inc., 218 S.W.3d 929, 930 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2007, no pet.) (concluding on original submission that the trial court abused its discretion by sanctioning counsel under Rule 215.3 because it did not find that a party abused the discovery process) (referencing Jones v. American Flood Research, Inc., 153 S.W.3d 718, 724 PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 13 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2005) review granted, judgment rev’d, 192 S.W.3d 581 (Tex. 2006)).

Because the Sanctions Order imposed a sanction on counsel under a rule which does not provide for sanctioning counsel, Respondent failed to apply the law correctly, which is an abuse of discretion. In re Ford Motor Co., 2014 WL 2994622; Huie, 922 S.W.2d at 927-28; Chapa, 848 S.W.2d at 668; Walker, 827 S.W.2d at 840.9 C. “Joint and Several” Sanction was an Abuse of Discretion (Issue III) The first TransAmerican prong also requires the trial court to ensure that any sanction be imposed only on the person engaging in the offending conduct.

American Flood Research, Inc., 192 S.W.3d at 583. The Sanctions Order declared that “Craig M. Daugherty, Ty Beard, Donald Harris, Jim E. Bullock and Brian Casper…prepared, signed and sent a false trial Subpoena to Central Title

In his motion for sanctions, the Trustee also complained that Relators sought his removal as trustee “without citing, or having, any legal authority for such relief” and made “false and groundless accusations…[of] criminal charges.” [R. TAB 3, ¶¶17-18]. On the contrary, Respondent correctly conducted a hearing under Section 113.082 of the Texas Trust Code (cited by Relators) regarding the Trustee’s removal via interlocutory order. [R. TAB 15 at 32-48]. And the “false and groundless accusations…[of] criminal charges” are specifically authorized as allegations to avoid the limitation on punitive damages under Section 41.008 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code. See TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE §41.008(c) (“This section does not apply to a cause of action against a defendant from whom a plaintiff seeks recovery of exemplary damages based on conduct described as a felony in the following sections of the Penal Code if, except for Sections 49.07 and 49.08, the conduct was committed knowingly or intentionally: … (10) Section 32.45 (misapplication of fiduciary property or property of financial institution)”); see also R. TAB 2 at ¶69, TAB 16 at 5-6.

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 14 Company…” and attempted to “avoid compliance with Rules 176.2, 176.3(b), 199.2(b)(5), 200, and 205….” [R. TAB 9, ¶¶1-2]. However, there simply is no legally sufficient (or even credible) evidence in the record that Ty Beard, Donald Harris, Jim E. Bullock or Brian Casper participated in preparing, signing or sending any “false trial Subpoena to Central Title Company.” In addition to the fact that the Purported Subpoena simply was not a “false trial subpoena,” it was not signed by Ty Beard, Donald Harris, Jim E. Bullock or Brian Casper, and the email to Central Title Company was not sent by Ty Beard, Donald Harris, Jim E. Bullock or Brian Casper. [R. TAB 5, EX. B at 4-11].

Absent evidence that they prepared or signed the Purported Subpoena or emailed it to Central Title Company, the Sanctions Order fails to establish a direct relationship between the sanction and any improper conduct by Ty Beard, Donald Harris, Jim E. Bullock and Brian Casper. Sanctioning them “jointly and severally” therefore, is contrary to the law’s prescription. American Flood Research, Inc., 192 S.W.3d at 583; TransAmerican Natural Gas Corp., 811 S.W.2d at 917. And Respondent’s misapplying the law constitutes an abuse of discretion. In re Ford Motor Co., 2014 WL 2994622; Huie, 922 S.W.2d at 927-28; Chapa, 848 S.W.2d at 668; Walker, 827 S.W.2d at 840.

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 15 D. Award of Attorneys’ Fees was an Abuse of Discretion (Issue IV) A party applying for an award of attorney’s fees must provide sufficient evidence supporting the request before the court can make a meaningful review and ruling. El Apple I, Ltd. v. Olivas, 370 S.W.3d 757, 761-64 (Tex. 2012). Sufficient evidence includes, at a minimum, evidence “of the services performed, who performed them and at what hourly rate, when they were performed, and how much time the work required”; indeed, without any evidence of the time spent on specific tasks, the trial court has insufficient information to meaningfully review the fee request. Long v. Griffin, 11-1021, 2014 WL 1643271 (Tex. Apr. 25, 2014).

Moreover, the request should be supported by “contemporaneous billing records or other documentation recorded reasonably close to the time when the work is performed.” El Apple I, Ltd., 370 S.W.3d at 762-63.

The Sanction Order merely states that Relators should reimburse the Trust for the Trustee’s attorneys “preparing and filing the Motion for Sanctions as well as preparing for and attending three (3) hearings on the Motion for Sanctions…calculated at thirty-five (35) hours at the rate of $400 per hour, which is reasonable and necessary….” [R. TAB 9, ¶¶3-4]. The only evidence presented to the trial court consisted of general, summary testimony by the Trustee’s counsel opining that more than $20,000 was “reasonable and necessary.” [R. TAB 5 at 22-23; TAB 7 at 70-71, 89]. No written statements or invoices showing “the services performed, PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 16 who performed them and at what hourly rate, when they were performed, and how much time the work required” were introduced into evidence. This summary testimony without the detailed evidence indicating the time expended on specific tasks simply was not legally sufficient evidence to support Respondent’s award of attorneys’ fees. Long, 2014 WL 1643271.

Moreover, the Sanctions Order was not supported by any (much less legally sufficient) evidence “of the services performed, who performed them and at what hourly rate, when they were performed, and how much time the work required” or “contemporaneous billing records or other documentation recorded reasonably close to the time when the work is performed”both required by the Texas Supreme Court for an award of attorney’s fees. Long, 2014 WL 1643271; El Apple I, Ltd., 370 S.W.3d at 762-64. In fact, despite two of the attorneys stating they billed at a lower rate, the Sanctions Order awards fees at $400 per hour without any (much less legally sufficient) evidence of which attorney provided which service. Simply put, Respondent’s granting any attorney’s fees based on the evidence before him disregarded the Texas Supreme Court’s mandate and was an abuse of discretion. In re Ford Motor Co., 2014 WL 2994622; Walker, 827 S.W.2d at 840.

E. Respondent Failed to Consider Lesser Sanction (Issue V) In rendering sanctions, the trial court must consider the availability of less stringent sanctions and whether such lesser sanctions would fully promote PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 17 compliance. TransAmerican Natural Gas Corp., 811 S.W.2d at 917-18; American Flood Research, Inc., 192 S.W.3d at 583. Respondent did not.

While the evidence unquestionably shows that Mr. Daugherty immediately offered an accommodation upon learning of the Trustee’s concerns (arguably requiring less than one hour of time for the Trustee’s counsel to confer with Mr. Daugherty), [R. TAB 5 at 51, 54-55, 57-58, 64-65, EX. C; TAB 6 at 29-30; TAB 7 at 90-91], the record shows that Respondent did not consider anything other than awarding nearly the full amount of attorneys’ fees sought by the Trustee’s counsel. [R. TAB 5 at 41-44, 62-63, 66-68; TAB 6 at 48; TAB 7 at 76].

Rather, the situation here is much the same as in Union Carbide Corporation v. Martin, 349 S.W.3d 137 (Tex. App.Dallas 2011): [I]t is uncontroverted that Martin’s counsel did not contact Union Carbide’s counsel to confer regarding Martin’s opposition to the subpoena duces tecum prior to filing the motions to quash the subpoena duces tecum, for protective order, and for sanctions. The local rules of the Dallas County civil district courts specifically require that prior to filing a motion, “counsel for the potential movant shall personally attempt to contact counsel for the potential respondent” in an effort to resolve disputed matters...Further, the rules of civil procedure require a certificate of conference on all discovery motions or requests for hearings related to discovery…Martin’s June 15, 2009 motions, including his motion for sanctions, did not contain a certificate of conference. Martin’s counsel admitted that he failed to confer with counsel for Union Carbide prior to filing the motions. The record is also uncontroverted that once Union Carbide became aware of Martin’s objections to Union Carbide’s discovery and the motions filed by Martin, Union Carbide repeatedly attempted to reach Martin’s counsel regarding Martin’s objections to the discovery and to advise Martin’s

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 18 counsel that Union Carbide was willing to withdraw the subpoena duces tecum.

Union Carbide Corp. v. Martin, 349 S.W.3d 137, 146-48 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2011, no pet.). In this case, it is uncontroverted that the Trustee’s counsel did not confer with Relators prior to filing the motion for sanctions, that such conference was required by the Smith County local rules prior to a hearing on any motion for sanctions, [APPX. TAB D, §2.1], and that Mr. Daugherty promptly contacted the Trustee’s counsel and took steps in response to the Trustee’s concerns.

The conclusion here is the same which the Dallas Court of Appeals reached in Union Carbide Corp., that the time and expense spent by all on the Trustee’s motion and hearings simply could have been avoided by the Trustee’s counsel complying with Local Rule 2.1 and Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 191. See id., 349 S.W.3d at 147.

And just as in Union Carbide Corp., neither the record nor the Sanctions Order contains a statement by the trial court that a lesser sanction would not be effective or any indication that the trial court even considered lesser sanctions. See id.; TransAmerican Natural Gas Corp., 811 S.W.2d at 917; Jones, 218 S.W.3d at 932. Indeed, the Trustee presented no legally sufficient evidence (indeed, no evidence) that the Purported Subpoena caused him any actual, measurable harm that was not redressed by Mr. Daugherty’s subsequent actions.

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 19 Accordingly, the same as in Union Carbide Corp., Respondent disregarded the requirements of the Texas Supreme Court which constituted an abuse of discretion. In re Ford Motor Co., 2014 WL 2994622; Huie, 922 S.W.2d at 927-28; Walker, 827 S.W.2d at 840; Union Carbide Corp., 349 S.W.3d at 148.

F. Respondent Ignored Applicable Rules of Procedure (Issue VI) A trial court’s clear failure to apply the law correctly constitutes an abuse of discretion. In re CompleteRx, Ltd., 366 S.W.3d 318, 321 (Tex. App.—Tyler 2012, no pet.). Accordingly, a trial court may not completely disregard rules governing trials. Hunt v. Heaton, 643 S.W.2d 677, 678 (Tex. 1982); Centennial Ins. Co. v. Commercial Union Ins. Companies, 803 S.W.2d 479, 482 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 1991, no writ); Scheffer v. Chron, 560 S.W.2d 419, 421 (Tex. Civ. App.—Beaumont 1977, writ ref’d n.r.e.). And when the language in a rule is specific and its meaning is clear, the rule is entitled to a literal interpretation. Approximately $14,980.00 v. State, 261 S.W.3d 182, 187 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2008, no pet.)

Rule of Civil Procedure 191.2 and Smith County Local Rule 2.1 both required the Trustee’s counsel to confer with Relators prior to filing the motion to quash and for sanctions, and Local Rules 2.1 and 2.4 specifically prohibited Respondent’s consideration of the Trustee’s motion without such conference. See TEX. R. CIV. P. 191.2 (discovery motions and requests for hearings “must contain” a certificate of PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 20 conference); LOCAL SMITH COUNTY RULES OF CIVIL TRIAL, RULE 2.1, 2.4 (court will not consider a motion for sanctions absent certificate of conference; clerk of the court is directed not to submit opposed motions without certificate of conference).10 There is no question that the Trustee’s counsel did not confer with Relators prior to filing the motion for sanctions. There is no question that Respondent proceeded to hear, consider and rule on the Trustee’s motion despite the lack of such conference. And there is no question that these actions violated the clear language of both the Rules of Civil Procedure and the Local Rules of Smith County. In other words, Respondent completely disregarded both the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure and the Local Rules of Smith County and, thus, abused his discretion. Hunt, 643 S.W.2d at 678; In re CompleteRx, Ltd., 366 S.W.3d at 321; Centennial Ins. Co., 803 S.W.2d at 482; Scheffer, 560 S.W.2d at 421.

“All discovery motions or requests for hearings relating to discovery must contain a certificate by the party filing the motion or request that a reasonable effort has been made to resolve the dispute without the necessity of court intervention and the effort failed.” TEX. R. CIV. P. 191.2.

“Before filing a motion, counsel for a moving party must confer or certify that a reasonable effort has been made to confer with the counsel, if known, of all parties affected by the requested relief to determine whether or not the contemplated motion will be opposed. Such a conference is required for all motions except motions to dismiss the entire action, motions to quash, motions for protection, temporary restraining orders, motions for judgment on the pleadings, motions for summary judgment, and motions for new trial…If a motion to compel or for sanctions is sought, the Court will not consider the motion unless the movant certifies that the movant has conferred with or made a reasonable effort to confer with opposing counsel in an effort to resolve the dispute without the necessity of Court intervention and that attempt has failed.” LOCAL SMITH COUNTY RULES OF CIVIL TRIAL, Rule 2.1 (emphasis added). “All opposed motions must include either (i) a certificate which states that a conference was held and indicates the date of the conference and the attorneys who conferred, or (ii) a certificate explaining why it was not possible to hold the conference…The clerk of the court is directed not to submit opposed motions to the judge unless there has been compliance with this rule.” Id., Rule 2.4 (emphasis in the original).

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 21 II. Relators Have No Adequate Appellate Remedy (Issues VII-VIII) Whether an appellate remedy is “adequate” requires a practical analysis rather than a formulaic approach; the term “adequate” is simply a proxy for carefully balancing use of mandamus proceedings to preserve important substantive and procedural rights from impairment or loss, allow the appellate courts to give needed and helpful direction to the law that would otherwise prove elusive in appeals from final judgments, and spare private parties and the public the time and money utterly wasted enduring eventual reversal of improperly conducted proceedings.

In re Prudential Insurance Company of America, 148 S.W.3d 124, 136 (Tex. 2004).

A. The Sanctions Order Exceeds Respondent’s Jurisdiction A trial court has wide latitude in managing proceedings and parties before it, but it cannot surpass the limits placed on its authority. See Dunn v. Street, 938 S.W.2d 33, 35 (Tex. 1997) (mandamus proper to review show cause order trial court had no jurisdiction to issue); In re Rusk Energy, Ltd., 12-07-00245-CV, 2008 WL 257019, at *6 (Tex. App.—Tyler Jan. 31, 2008, no pet.), subsequent mandamus proceeding, 12-07-00245-CV, 2008 WL 375972 (Tex. App.—Tyler Feb. 13, 2008) (trial court’s orders must be supported by sufficient evidence). Here, Respondent sanctioned Relators for conduct which was not a violation of any discovery rule or order, and he did so under a Rule which does not provide for sanctioning of counsel while disregarding Texas Supreme Court mandates and rules—all beyond

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 22 Respondent’s jurisdiction. Huie, 922 S.W.2d at 927-28. And mandamus is proper if a trial court issues an order that exceeds its jurisdictional authority. In re John G. & Marie Stella Kenedy Memorial Foundation, 315 S.W.3d 519, 522 (Tex. 2010).

B. Appeal is an Illusory Remedy for Relators In order for an appeal to supersede the remedy by mandamus, not only must there be an actual remedy by appeal, but also the appeal provided for must be competent to afford relief on the very subject-matter of the application for mandamus, equally convenient, beneficial, and effective as mandamus. Way v. Coca Cola Bottling Co., 119 Tex. 419, 429-30, 29 S.W.2d 1067, 1071-72 (Comm’n App. 1930). While Rule 215.3 states than a sanctions order “shall be subject to review on appeal from the final judgment,” TEX. R. CIV. P. 215.3, that, however, is an illusory remedy for Relators.

First, Relators have no independent right of appeal. Relators are Deborah’s attorneys and not “parties” to the underlying action. See Great W. Drilling, Ltd. v. Alexander, 305 S.W.3d 688 (Tex. App.—Eastland 2009, no pet.) (attorney is representative of party to the litigation); Maynard v. Caballero, 752 S.W.2d 719 (Tex. App.—El Paso 1988, writ denied) (attorney acts on behalf of his client); Renfroe v. Jones & Associates, 947 S.W.2d 285 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 1997, writ denied) (attorney represents client in the litigation). This distinction deprives Relators of an independent right to appeal the Sanctions Order. In re Arras, 24 PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 23 S.W.3d 862, 864 (Tex. App.—El Paso 2000, no pet.) (“Since Arras is not a party to this action, she could not appeal from a judgment in the case.”); Martin v. Khoury, 843 S.W.2d 163, 165 (Tex. App.—Texarkana 1992, no writ) (“They are not parties to this action and therefore could not appeal from a judgment in the case.”).

Second, there is no trial date. Indeed, Respondent continued the trial of the underlying cause for the fifth time over a year ago with no resetting. [R. TAB 7 at 103-09; TAB 12]. Yet Respondent deliberately set payment under the Sanctions Order to occur before final judgment in this case could be rendered. [R. TAB 7 at 92- 94]. So Relators face the loss of their money and damage to their professional reputations, all for conduct which is not sanctionable, without any certainty they will be afforded an opportunity to appeal—this is no adequate remedy. See In re Rusk Energy, 2008 WL 257019 (no adequate remedy by appeal where deprivation of bond money during trial without any likelihood of recovering damages for its loss of use).

Moreover, it is questionable whether the errors of the Sanctions Order could be corrected on appeal from a final judgment absent a showing it “probably caused the rendition of an improper judgment” or “probably prevented the appellant from properly presenting the case to the court of appeals.” TEX. R. APP. P. 44.1(a); see In re Rusk Energy, 2008 WL 257019 at *6.11

See also In re Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission, 85 S.W.3d 201 (Tex. 2002) (mandamus available to remedy TRO that violates time limitations); In re Long, 984 S.W.2d 623 (Tex. 1999) (mandamus available to review civil contempt order).

PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 24 Relators thus have no adequate appellate remedy; they are left with either mandamus review of the Sanctions Order or no review at all. The Sanctions Order creates a situation that cannot be corrected on appeal and thus makes an appeal inadequate. See In re Van Waters & Rogers, Inc., 145 S.W.3d 204, 211 (Tex. 2004) (an appeal is inadequate when an appellate court cannot cure the error). Hence, the remedy under Rule 215.3 is purely “abstract or formulaic,” and denying mandamus review of the Sanctions Order would require the Court of Appeals “to turn a blind eye to blatant injustice.” In re Prudential, 148 S.W.3d at 136.

C. Mandamus is Needed to Give Direction to the Law Intervention by the Court of Appeals is necessary “to give needed and helpful direction to the law that would otherwise prove elusive in appeals from final judgments.” In re Prudential, 148 S.W.3d at 136.

If the attempt to obtain potentially admissible evidence through voluntary production of documents and a Rule 902 business records affidavit violates the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure, then a systemic problem exists—a conflict between the rules of procedure and the rules of evidence—that should be addressed so Texas judges and lawyers alike have this “needed and helpful direction.”

If, however, the process utilized by Mr. Daugherty and countless other practitioners does not offend the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure, then the Sanctions Order was issued “with such disregard for guiding principles of law”Texas PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 25 Supreme Court precedent, the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure, and the Local Rules of Smith Countythat “the harm…becomes irreparable,” In re Masonite Corp., 997 S.W.2d 194, 197 (Tex. 1999) (internal quotations omitted), making this an exceptional case warranting mandamus review. See In re Ford Motor Co., 2014 WL 2994622 (“[A] clear failure by the trial court to analyze or apply the law correctly will constitute an abuse of discretion, and may result in appellate reversal by extraordinary writ.”).

In short, mandamus review here is essential to preserve Relators’ important substantive and procedural rights from impairment and loss and to give needed and helpful direction to Respondent in applying the law. See In re Siemens Corp., 153 S.W.3d 694, 699 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2005, no pet.) (discussing elements of “an exceptional case”). Mandamus relief is appropriate here “to spare the parties and the public the time and money spent on fatally flawed proceedings.” In re Essex Insurance Co., 13-1006, 2014 WL 6612590, at *3 (Tex. Nov. 21, 2014).

Conclusion The Sanctions Order purports to punish Relators for conduct which does not constitute an abuse of the discovery process, contradicts the evidence presented to the trial court, disregards controlling law and applicable rules, and puts Relators in a position where they have no adequate remedy by appeal. This is a case where “mandamus relief will safeguard important substantive and procedural rights from PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS PAGE 26 impairment or loss…[and] allow the appellate courts to give needed and helpful direction to the law that would otherwise prove elusive in appeals from final judgments,” thereby justifying the review and relief sought by Relators. In re GlobalSanteFe Corp., 275 S.W.3d 477, 483 (Tex. 2008); In re ComplexRx, Ltd., 366 S.W.3d at 321; In re Siemens Corp., 153 S.W.3d at 699.

Prayer WHEREFORE, premises considered, Relators respectfully request that the Court of Appeals issue a writ of mandamus ordering Respondent to vacate the Sanctions Order; and Relators respectfully request such other and further relief to which they are justly or equitably entitled.

Vernon's Texas Rules Annotated Texas Rules of Evidence (Refs & Annos) Article IX. Authentication and Identification (Refs & Annos) TX Rules of Evidence, Rule 902 Rule 902. Self-Authentication Currentness

The following items of evidence are self-authenticating; they require no extrinsic evidence of authenticity in order to be admitted:

(1) Domestic Public Documents Under Seal. A document bearing a seal purporting to be that of the United States, or of any State, district, Commonwealth, territory, or insular possession thereof, or the Panama Canal Zone, or the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, or of a political subdivision, department, officer, or agency thereof, and a signature purporting to be an attestation or execution.

(2) Domestic Public Documents Not Under Seal. A document purporting to bear the signature in the official capacity of an officer or employee of any entity included in paragraph (1) hereof, having no seal, if a public officer having a seal and having official duties in the district or political subdivision of the officer or employee certifies under seal that the signer has the official capacity and that the signature is genuine.

(3) Foreign Public Documents. A document purporting to be executed or attested in an official capacity by a person, authorized by the laws of a foreign country to make the execution or attestation, and accompanied by a final certification as to the genuineness of the signature and official position (A) of the executing or attesting person, or (B) of any foreign official whose certificate of genuineness of signature and official position relates to the execution or attestation or is in a chain of certificates of genuineness of signature and official position relating to the execution or attestation. A final certification may be made by a secretary of embassy or legation, consul general, consul, vice consul, or consular agent of the United States, or a diplomatic or consular official of the foreign country assigned or accredited to the United States. If reasonable opportunity has been given to all parties to investigate the authenticity and accuracy of official documents, the court may, for good cause shown, order that they be treated as presumptively authentic without final certification or permit them to be evidenced by an attested summary with or without final certification. The final certification shall be dispensed with whenever both the United States and the foreign country in which the official record is located are parties to a treaty or convention that abolishes or displaces such requirement, in which case the record and the attestation shall be certified by the means provided in the treaty or convention.

(4) Certified Copies of Public Records. A copy of an official record or report or entry therein, or of a document authorized by law to be recorded or filed and actually recorded or filed in a public office, including data compilations in any form certified as correct by the custodian or other person authorized to make the certification, by certificate complying with paragraph (1), (2) or (3) of this rule or complying with any statute or other rule prescribed pursuant to statutory authority.

(5) Official Publications. Books, pamphlets, or other publications purporting to be issued by public authority.

(6) Newspapers and Periodicals. Printed materials purporting to be newspapers or periodicals.

(7) Trade Inscriptions and the Like. Inscriptions, signs, tags, or labels purporting to have been affixed in the course of business and indicating ownership, control, or origin.

(8) Acknowledged Documents. Documents accompanied by a certificate of acknowledgment executed in the manner provided by law by a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments.

(9) Commercial Paper and Related Documents. Commercial paper, signatures thereon, and documents relating thereto to the extent provided by general commercial law.

(10) Business Records Accompanied by Affidavit. The original or a copy of a record that meets the requirements of Rule 803(6) or (7), if the record is accompanied by an affidavit that complies with subparagraph (B) of this rule and any other requirements of law, and the record and affidavit are served in accordance with subparagraph (A). For good cause shown, the court may order that a business record be treated as presumptively authentic even if the proponent fails to comply with subparagraph (A).

(A) Service Requirement. The proponent of a record must serve the record and the accompanying affidavit on each other party to the case at least 14 days before trial. The record and affidavit may be served by any method permitted by Rule of Civil Procedure 21a.

(B) Form of Affidavit. An affidavit is sufficient if it includes the following language, but this form is not exclusive:

1. I am the custodian of records [or I am an employee or owner] of __________ and am familiar with the manner in which its records are created and maintained by virtue of my duties and responsibilities.

Editors' Notes COMMENT--2013 Rule 902(10)(c) is added to provide a form affidavit for proof of medical expenses. The affidavit is intended to comport with Section 41.0105 of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code, which allows evidence of only those medical expenses that have been paid or will be paid, after any required credits or adjustments. See Haygood v. Escabedo, 356 S.W.3d 390 (Tex. 2011). The records attached to the affidavit must also meet the admissibility standard of Haygood, 356 S.W.3d at 399-400 (“[O]nly evidence of recoverable medical expenses is admissible at trial.”).

COMMENT--2014 At the direction of the Legislature, the requirement that records be filed with the court before trial has been removed.

See Act of May 17, 2013, 83rd Leg., R.S., ch. 560, § 3, 2013 Tex. Gen. Laws 1509, 1510 (SB 679). The word “affidavit” in this rule includes an unsworn declaration made under penalty of perjury. TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM.

CODE § 132.001. The reference to “any other requirements of law” incorporates the requirements of Sections 18.001 and 18.002 of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code for affidavits offered as prima facie proof of the cost or necessity of services or medical expenses. The form medical expenses affidavit that was added to this rule in 2013 has been removed as unnecessary. It can now be found in Section 18.002(b-1) of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code.

© 2015 Thomson Reuters. No claim to original U.S. Government Works. 3 Tab D: Local Smith County Rules LOCAL SMITH COUNTY RULES OF CIVIL TRIAL JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURTS AND COUNTY COURTS AT LAW SMITH COUNTY, TEXAS The following local rules of civil trial are adopted for use in non-family law civil trials in the 7th Judicial District Court, 114th Judicial District Court, 241st Judicial District Court, 321st Judicial District Court, County Court at Law, County Court at Law No. 2, County Court at Law No. 3 and the County Court of Smith County, Texas.

It is ORDERED that these rules shall be published, in a manner reasonably calculated to bring the rules to the attention of attorneys practicing before the Smith County courts, on or before November 23, 1998.

These rules shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure and any rule of the First Administrative Judicial Region.

The Smith County District Clerk and the Smith County Court Clerk shall make the Local Smith County Rules of Civil Trial available, upon request, for review to citizens and members of the bar.

It is ORDERED that these rules are effective beginning on April 1, 1999 or upon their approval by the Texas Supreme Court pursuant to T.R.C.P.3a, whichever occurs later.

RULE 1. The objective of the Rules of Civil Trial is to obtain a just, fair, equitable and impartial adjudication of the rights of litigants under established principles of substantive law and established rules of procedural law. To the end that this objective may be attained with as great expedition and dispatch and at the least expense both to the litigants and to the state as may be practicable, the rules shall be applied to ensure that, so far as reasonably possible, all matters are brought to trial or final disposition in conformity with the rules established by the Texas Supreme Court and laws of the State of Texas.

RULE 2. MOTIONS.

2.1 Certification of Conference. Before filing a motion, counsel for a moving party must confer or certify that a reasonable effort has been made to confer with the counsel, if known, of all parties affected by the requested relief to determine whether or not the contemplated motion will be opposed. Such a conference is required for all motions except motions to dismiss the entire action, motions to quash, motions for protection, temporary restraining orders, motions for judgment on the pleadings, motions for summary judgment, and motions for new trial.

The purpose of the conference requirement is to promote a frank exchange between counsel to resolve issues by agreement or to at least narrow and focus the matters in controversy before judicial resolution is sought.

If a motion to compel or for sanctions is sought, the Court will not consider the motion unless the movant certifies that the movant has conferred with or made a reasonable effort to confer with opposing counsel in an effort to resolve the dispute without the necessity of Court intervention and that the attempt has failed.

2.2 Form. Motions shall be in writing and shall be accompanied by a proposed order granting the relief sought. The proposed order shall be a separate instrument. All pleadings, motions, orders and other papers filed with the Court shall be consecutively numbered at the bottom of the page.

2.3 Submission. Motions shall state a date of submission at which time the Motion will be considered without a hearing, unless both a request for oral argument and a response are filed. The movant shall select the date of submission which shall be no sooner than the Monday following fifteen (15) days from date of filing, except on leave of Court. The motion will be submitted to the Court for ruling on that date or later.

Submission date on motions for summary judgment shall be no sooner than the expiration of thirty (30) days from the date of filing of the motion for summary judgment. A response, if any, to a motion for summary judgment shall be filed and served seven (7) days before the submission date pursuant Tex. R. Civ. Proc. Rule 166a. However, the Court will not actually hear oral argument on a motion for summary judgment unless (i) properly requested pursuant to Local Rule 2.7., and (ii) the Court determines that oral argument will substantially aid the Court in ruling on the motion for summary judgment. Counsel are encouraged to include citations and copies of any cases believed to be controlling as part of the motion or response.

2.4 Opposed Motions. All opposed motions must include either (i) a certificate which states that a conference was held and indicates the date of the conference and the attorneys who conferred, or (ii) a certificate explaining why it was not possible to hold the conference. Each contested motion must be accompanied by a separate proposed order and by a brief setting forth the movant's contentions of fact and law, unless a brief or proposed order is not required.

The clerk of the court is directed not to submit opposed motions to the judge unless there has been compliance with this rule.

2.5 Unopposed Motions. All unopposed motions must be accompanied by agreed proposed orders, signed by the parties or their attorneys. Motions without opposition and their orders must be captioned "Agreed." 2.6 Responses and Replies. Failure to respond to a motion is deemed to be a representation of no opposition unless objections are already on file. Responses to motions must be filed at least two working days before the date of submission, be in writing and supported by authority, and be accompanied by a separate form order denying the relief sought, unless the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure provide otherwise.

2.7 Oral Argument. The motion or response shall include a request for oral argument, if desired, in the requesting party's motion or response. A request for an oral argument alone is not a response under Rule 2.6.

2.8 Motions for Continuance or Postponement.

(1) All Motions for Continuance or Postponement must be filed in writing with the Court at least seven (7) days prior to the hearing in the cause, except for good cause shown, and a copy properly served upon opposing counsel or unrepresented opposing parties.

(2) No request to continue, pass, postpone or reset any trial, pretrial or other hearing shall be granted unless counsel for all parties involved consent, or unless all parties not joining in such request or their counsel have been notified and have had opportunity to object. It is discretionary with the Court as to whether or not to grant any requested continuance or postponement even if such request is unopposed.

(3) All second or subsequent Motions for Continuance must be personally approved and signed by the client for whom a postponement is requested, or if the client is unavailable or out of state, counsel may certify that his client has been mailed a copy of the motion by certified mail, return-receipt requested with a cover letter stating in a separate paragraph in bold face type, The postponement is being sought by (attorney's name) for (the party's name).

RULE 3. PRETRIAL.

3.1 Civil Case Joint Questionnaire The Court orders that the Civil Case Joint Questionnaire, provided by the Smith County District or County Clerk’s office, be completed and filed by the Plaintiff after conferring with all counsel and pro se parties. The questionnaire must be filed within ninety (90) days of the date of the filing of the case.

3.2 Discovery Control Plan and Scheduling Order. The Court will enter a discovery control plan and scheduling order which will control the course of litigation and may not be amended without leave of Court.

Level 1 Discovery Control Plan shall apply to any suit as provided by 190.2 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure.

Level 2 Discovery Control Plan shall apply to any suit as provided by 190.3 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure.

The plaintiff or defendant may certify to the Court in writing at the time of the filing of plaintiff's pleading or the defendant's answer that the litigation is complex and should proceed under a 190.4 (Level 3) Discovery Control Order. If the Court concurs, the Court will enter a scheduling order to accommodate complex litigation as provided by 190.4 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure.

The Court may modify a discovery control plan at any time and shall do so when the interest of justice requires or when required under 190.5 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure. The date for the discovery deadline may be extended by Agreed Motion signed by all parties, so long as the proposed extension does not adversely affect the other dates or deadlines on the Scheduling Order.

3.3 Exhibits.

(1) Each counsel will file a list of all potential exhibits to be offered, provide a copy to opposing counsel, and make all such exhibits available for examination by opposing counsel, and do so before the Pre-Trial Conference or at least seven (7) days before trial, whichever occurs first. The only exceptions to this rule are rebuttal exhibits which cannot be anticipated. Designation of substantially more documents than an attorney or party reasonably expects to actually introduce at trial will subject the offending party to sanctions and/or contempt of Court. Failure to comply with this rule will subject the offending party to sanctions and/or contempt of Court.

(2) A party’s production of a document in response to written discovery is self- authenticated as provided by Section 193.7 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure.

Any counsel requiring authentication of any other exhibits not covered by Section 193.7, must so notify in writing the offering counsel at least fifteen (15) days before trial or pre-trial conference, whichever is earlier, except on leave of Court for good cause. Failure to do so is an admission of authenticity.

(3) Any other objections to admissibility of exhibits must, where possible, be made at least fifteen (15) days before trial or pre-trial conference, whichever is earlier, except on leave of Court for good cause, and the Court notified in writing with copies to all counsel accompanied by supporting legal authorities and copies of the exhibits in dispute. All objections will normally be ruled upon by the Court prior to trial.

(4) The offering party must pre-mark and pre-number his or her own exhibits prior to trial and must provide a list of exhibits to be offered at trial to the court reporter before jury selection.

(5) All exhibits will be offered and received in evidence as the first item of business at the trial.

3.4 Joint Pretrial Order.

(1) Filing. A joint pretrial order shall be filed by the Plaintiff's attorney at least fifteen (15) days before the scheduled date of trial unless specified otherwise in the Scheduling Order. If an attorney for either party does not participate in the preparation of the joint pretrial order, the opposing attorney shall file a separate pretrial order with an explanation of why the joint order was not submitted.

(2) Contents. The pretrial order must contain; (1) a summary of the claims and defenses of each party; (2) pending motions needing resolution; (3) a statement of the stipulated facts; (4) a list of the contested issues of fact; (5) a list of those legal propositions not in dispute; (6) a list of contested issues of law; (7) names and addresses of witnesses and each party shall designate whether the witness will testify by deposition or in person; subject to change only upon good cause affirmatively established to the Court; (8) a statement that settlement efforts have been exhausted; (9) an estimate of the length of trial; (10) the signature of each attorney; and (11) a place for the date and signature of the Court.

(3) Video Presentations. Attorneys proposing to use video presentations must present the page and line numbers to opposing counsel at the time assigned for the entry of the joint pretrial order. Objections by opposing counsel must be presented to the Court and the offering attorney prior to the joint pretrial conference. Any edited video depositions shall be presented for exhibition to opposing counsel to examine any piecemeal editing, relocation of testimony, exhibition out of context, etc. Opposing counsel shall be entitled to assert the rule of Optional Completeness and have portions of the deposition proposed by opposing counsel or the entire deposition introduced after the initial presentation unless counsel agree to have a single presentation whether edited or in its unedited entirety. Any objections to the proposed video depositions shall be made prior to the pretrial conference and rulings will be made by the Court at the pretrial conference so that the video presentation of a party may be made uninterrupted.

(4) Objections. Objections to any matters set forth in the pretrial order shall be filed with the Court prior to the pretrial conference. All such objections will be ruled upon by the Court at the pretrial conference.

3.5 Exclusion. The parties may file, within twenty (20) days of the date of the scheduling order, an agreed motion and proposed order requesting exclusion of certain cases, i.e. collection suits, worker's compensation, simple car wrecks, slip and fall, etc., from the requirements of a joint pretrial order and pretrial conference and the Court will consider and rule upon such motion.

3.6 Pretrial Conference. A pretrial conference will be held according to the scheduling order entered by the Court which will normally be ten (10) days prior to the case's trial setting or at such other dates as set by the trial Court.

RULE 4. TRIALS.

4.1 Manner of Setting. Cases shall be set for trial by order of the Court.

4.2 Date of Setting. Cases shall be set for trial for a date certain. If a case is not tried by the second Friday after the date it was set, whether because of a continuance or because it was not reached, the Court shall reset the case to a date certain. Unless all parties agree otherwise, the new setting must comply with all requisites of T.R.C.P. 245.

4.3. Witness Attendance. Each party is responsible for the attendance at trial of its proposed witnesses, and may not rely on another party's list for attendance of a witness. Witnesses under subpoena are not affected by this rule.

4.4 Witness Numbers. Each party or parties with the same alignment on a disputed issue will be allowed up to two (2) witnesses on any disputed issue, such as expert witnesses, character witnesses, etc., except on good cause shown.

RULE 5. SUBMISSION OF ORDERS, DECREES AND JUDGMENTS.

Within ten (10) days after rendition of an order, an agreed order, decision, judgment or an announced settlement by counsel, counsel for the moving party shall cause, unless ordered otherwise, all such orders, decisions, or judgments, or documents to be reduced to writing and delivered to opposing counsel with an appropriate signature line to allow opposing counsel to acknowledge "approved as to form" or "approved as to form and substance," as appropriate.

Opposing counsel must then return such order, decision, judgment, or document to the originating counsel within ten (10) days either with signature subscribed thereon or with objections in writing. Once attorneys for all parties have signed the document, it should be forwarded to the court coordinator for signature by the trial judge. If objections to the form or the substance of the order are made, the moving counsel is required to either amend the order to alleviate the objections and resubmit it to opposing counsel or forward it to the Court with a request for a hearing. If a response as required herein is not provided within ten (10) days of receipt of the proposed order, originating counsel may present the order and evidence of opposing counsel's receipt to the Court for signature and rendition.

If either counsel or a party cause or require a hearing that a reasonable and prudent party or attorney in the same or similar circumstances would not have caused or required, the Court shall award attorney's fees against such party or attorney in favor of the other party including any reasonable fees or expenses incurred as a result of causing or requiring the hearing. If counsel for the moving party or alternate counsel ordered by the Court to prepare the order, decision, judgment or other document fail to comply with the provisions of this rule, the Court shall award attorney's fees against the failing party in favor of the other party for fees and expenses incurred reasonably by the other party's counsel in preparing the order or document. The Court may consider any requests for extensions of time under this rule for good cause shown only.

RULE 6. DISMISSAL DOCKETS.

The following cases are eligible for dismissal for want of prosecution pursuant to T.R.C.P. 165a: (a) Cases on file for more than 180 days in which no answer has been filed or is required by law; (b) Cases which have been on file for more than twelve (12) months and are not set for trial; (c) Cases in which any party seeking affirmative relief fails to appear for any hearing or trial of which the party has notice.

RULE 7. SETTLEMENT.

Counsel is to notify the Court immediately of settlements that obviate Court settings as unnecessarily summoned jury panels are disruptive to the Court and jurors.

RULE 8. VACATIONS OF COUNSEL.

An attorney may designate not more than four (4) weeks during the year as vacation, during which time he will not be assigned to trial or required to engage in any pretrial proceedings. A separate written designation in each cause must be filed with the Court Coordinator at least 45 days in advance of the vacation period unless the case has been set for trial prior to counsel's vacation designation. This rule operates only where lead counsel, as defined by T.R.C.P. 8 is affected, unless the Court expands coverage to other counsel.

If a case is set by the Court during the designated vacation period, counsel must timely file with the Court a written Motion for Continuance to bring to the Court’s attention the filed vacation designation.

RULE 9. APPEARANCES.

Attorneys must make court appearances in person unless all matters to be considered in the hearing have been agreed by all parties and such agreement is reflected in a letter or fax, signed by all affected attorneys, to the Court through its court coordinator. If a fax is sent to manifest such agreement, the court coordinator should be notified by telephone when the fax is actually transmitted.

The Court may allow, upon request, counsel to appear by telephone conference call. This, however, is discretionary with each individual Court.

RULE 10. EFFECTIVE DATE.

These rules shall become effective upon their approval by the Texas Supreme Court pursuant to T.R.C.P.3a or April 1, 1999, whichever occurs later.

ORDERED AND SIGNED on this the ____ day of ___________________, 1999.

Tab E: Affidavit of Pam Miller State ofTexas § § County of Cherokee § Mfidavit of Pam Miller Before me, the undersigned Notary Public, personally appeared Pam Miller, who, being duly sworn, deposed as follows: 1. My name is Pam Miller. I am an adult and I have personal knowledge of the facts stated herein. These facts are true and correct.

2. I am the founder and owner of Records & Review, a legal records service located in Jacksonville, TX. I am also a certified Legal Assistant and have been since 1988. I have operated Records & Review since 1992.

3. I am the custodian of records of Records & Review. Attached hereto are 81 pages of records from Records & Review.

4. The attached records are kept by Records & Review in the regular course of its business.

5. It was in the regular course of business of Records & Review for an employee or representative of Records & Review, with knowledge of the act, event, condition, opinion, or diagnosis recorded to make the record or to transmit information thereof to be included in such records.

6. The records were made at or near the time or reasonably soon thereafter.

7. The attached records are exact duplicates of the original records.

8. From my many years of practice in the legal records industry I have personal knowledge of the procedures of Records & Review as well as those of many other records services that operate in the State of Texas. Based upon that knowledge, I know it is an industry wide practice to transmit to third party record custodians, by mail, email or fax, a request for the voluntary production of documents in conjunction with the completion of a deposition on written questions, the execution of a Rule 902 business records affidavit, or both. In each such instance of which I am aware this request is accompanied by a draft form of a subpoena essentially identical to those found in the attached records. This practice encourages these non-party records custodians to produce documents without the necessity of being formally subpoenaed and having to give an oral deposition to authenticate the documents.

The draft form subpoena that accompanies the requ est is not formally served under the Rules of Civil Procedure; it is just sent with the deposition on written questions or the Rule 902 business records affidavit, whichever has been selected by the attorney requesting the service. The purpose of the draft subpoena is simply to give the records custodian an advance copy and the option to complete and return the deposition on written questions or the Rule 902 business records affidavit, as may be the case, or to indicate that their policies require that formal service of a subpoena is necessary. (Some records custodians prefer to have a subpoena for their files, even if it is not formally served.)

9. Based upon my knowledge of the industry practices these requests for voluntary production of documents accompanied by these draft subpoena forms are sent to hundreds or more third party records custodians each and every business day in Texas.

Notary Public In and for The State of __________ My Commission Expires:._ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ Texas Administrative Code TITLE22 EXAMINING BOARDS PART9 TEXAS MEDICAL BOARD CHAPTER165 MEDICAL RECORDS RULE §165.2 Medical Record Release and Charges (a) Release of Records Pursuant to Written Request. As required by the Medical Practice Act,§ 159.006, a physician shall furnish copies of medical and/or billing records requested or a summary or narrative of the records pursuant to a written release of1he information as provided by the Medical Practice Act, §159.005, except if the physician determines that access to the information would be harmful to the physical, mental, or emotional health of the patient. The physician may delete confidential information about another patient or family member of the patient who has not consented to the release. If requested, the physician shall provide the requested records in electronic format, if such records are readily producible. If the requested records are not readily producible in a readable electronic format, the records shall be produced in a format as agreed to by the physician and the requestor. If by the nature of the physician's practice, the physician transmits health information in electronic form, the physician may be subject to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) 45 C.F .R. Parts 160-164. Unless otherwise provided under HIPAA, physicians subject to HIPAA must permit the patient or an authorized representative access to inspect medical and/or billing records and may not provide summaries in lieu of actual copies unless the patient authorizes the summary and related charges. ,..(b) Deadline for Release of Records. The requested copies of medical and/or billing -.., records or a summary or narrative of the records shall be furnished by the physician within 15 business days after the date of receipt of the request and reasonable fees for tlurnishing the information. ~ (c) Denial of Requests for Records. If the physician denies the request for copies of medical and/or billing records or a summary or narrative of the records, either in whole or in part, the physician shall furnish the patient a written statement, signed and dated, within 15 business days of receipt of the request stating the reason for the denial and how the patient can file a complaint with the federal Department of Health and Human Services (if the physician is subject to HIPAA) and the Texas Medical Board. A copy of the statement denying the request shall be placed in the patient's medical and/or billing records as appropriate. (d) Contents of Records. For purposes of this section, "medical records" shall include those records as defined in §165.l(a) of this title (relating to Medical Records) and shall include copies of medical records of other health care practitioners contained in the records of the physician to whom a request for release of records has been made.

Direct Questions 2 Texas Administrative Code TITLE22 EXAMINING BOARDS PART9 TEXAS MEDICAL BOARD CHAPTER165 MEDICAL RECORDS RULE §165.2 Medical Record Release and Charges (a) Release of Records Pursuant to Written Request. As required by the Medical Practice Act, §159.006, a physician shall furnish copies of medical and/or billing records requested or a summary or narrative of the records pursuant to a written release of the information as provided by the Medical Practice Act, § 159.005, except if the physician determines that access to the information would be harmful to the physical, mental, or emotional health of the patient. The physician may delete confidential information about another patient or family member of the patient who has not consented to the release. If requested, the physician shall provide the requested records in electronic format, if such records are readily producible. If the requested records are not readily producible in a readable electronic format, the records shall be produced in a format as agreed to by the physician and the requestor. If by the nature of the physician's practice, the physician transmits health information in electronic form, the physician may be subject to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) 45 C.F.R. Parts 160-164. Unless otherwise provided under HIPAA, physicians subject to HIPAA must permit the patient or an authorized representative access to inspect medical and/or billing records and may not provide summaries in lieu of actual copies unless the patient authorizes the summary and related charges. ,...(b) Deadline for Release of Records. The requested copies of medical and/or billing ~ records or a summary or narrative of the records shall be furnished by the physician within 15 business days after the date of receipt of the request and reasonable fees for ~urnishing the information. ~ (c) Denial of Requests for Records. If the physician denies the request for copies of medical and/or billing records or a summary or narrative of the records, either in whole or in part, the physician shall furnish the patient a written statement, signed and dated, within 15 business days of receipt of the request stating the reason for the denial and how the patient can file a complaint with the federal Department of Health and Human Services (if the physician is subject to IDPAA) and the Texas Medical Board. A copy of the statement denying the request shall be placed in the patient's medical and/or billing records as appropriate. (d) Contents of Records. For purposes of this section, "medical records" shall include those records as defined in §165.1(a) of this title (relating to Medical Records) and shall include copies of medical records of other health care practitioners contained in the records of the physician to whom a request for release of records has been made. (e) Allowable Charges.

(1) Paper Format. (A) The physician responding to a request for such information in paper format shall be entitled to receive a reasonable, cost-based fee for providing the requested information. (B) A reasonable fee for providing the requested records in paper format shall be a charge of no more than $25 for the first twenty pages and $.50 per page for every copy thereafter.

(2) Electronic Format. (A) The physician responding to a request for such information to be provided in electronic format shall be entitled to receive a reasonable, cost-based fee for providing the requested information in electronic format. (B) A reasonable fee for providing the requested records in electronic format shall be a charge of no more than: $25 for 500 pages or less; $50 for more than 500 pages.

(3) Hybrid Records Format. (A) The physician responding to a request for such information that is contained partially in electronic format and partially in paper format ("hybrid"), may provide the requested information in a hybrid format and shall be entitled to receive a reasonable, cost based fee for providing the requested information. (B) A reasonable fee for providing the requested records in a hybrid format may be a combination of the fees as set forth in paragraphs (1) and (2) of this subsection. (4) Other Charges. (A) If an affidavit is requested, certifying that the information is a true and correct copy of the records, whether in paper, electronic or hybrid format, a reasonable fee of up to $15 may be charged for executing the affidavit. (B) A physician may charge separate fees for medical and billing records requested. (C) Allowable charges for copies of diagnostic imaging studies are set forth in § 165.3 of this title (relating to Patient Access to Diagnostic Imaging Studies in Physician's Office) and are separate from the charges set forth in this section. (5) A reasonable fee for records provided in a paper, electronic or hybrid format may not include costs associated with searching for and retrieving the requested information, and shall include only the cost of: (A) copying and labor, including, compiling, extracting, scanning, burning onto media, and distributing media; (B) cost of supplies for creating the paper copy or electronic media (if the individual requests portable media) that are not prohibited by federal law; (C) postage, when the individual has requested the copy or summary be mailed; and (D) preparing a summary of the records when appropriate. (f) Emergency Requests. The physician providing copies of requested medical and/or billing records or a summary or a narrative of such records shall be entitled to payment of a reasonable fee prior to release of the information unless the information is requested by a licensed Texas health care provider or a physician licensed by any state, territory, or insular possession of the United States or any State or province of Canada if requested for purposes of emergency or acute medical care. (g) Non-emergent Requests. In the event the physician receives a proper request for copies of medical and/or billing records or a summary or narrative of the records for purposes other than for emergency or acute medical care, the physician may retain the requested information until payment is received. If payment is not routed with such a request, within ten calendar days from receiving a request for the release of such records, the physician shall notify the requesting party in writing of the need for payment and may withhold the information until payment of a reasonable fee is received.

A copy of the letter regarding the need for payment shall be made part of the patient's medical and/or billing record as appropriate. (h) Improper Wi11:hholding for Past Due Accounts. Medical and/or billing records requested pursuant to a proper request for release may not be withheld from the patient, the patient's authorized agent, or the patient's designated recipient for such records based on a past due account for medical care or treatment previously rendered to the patient. (i) Subpoena Not Required. A subpoena shall not be required for the release of medical and/or billing records requested pursuant to a proper release for records under this section and the Medical Practice Act, § 159.006, made by a patient or by the patient's guardian or other representative du1y authorized to obtain such records.

(k) Prohibited Fees for Records Released Related to Disability Claims. The allowable charges as set forth in this chapter shall be maximum amounts, and this chapter shall be construed and applied so as to be consistent with lower fees or the prohibition or absence of such fees as required by state statute or prevailing federal law. In particular, under §161.202 of the Texas Health and Safety Code, a physician may not charge a fee for a medical or mental health record requested by a patient, former patient or authorized representative of the patient if the request is related to a benefits or assistance claim based on the patient's disability.

(1) Applicable Federal Law. Whenever federal law or applicable federal regulations affecting the release of patient information are inconsistent with provisions of this section, the provisions of federal law or federal regulations shall be controlling, unless the state law is more restrictive/stringent. Physicians are responsible for ensuring that they are in compliance with federal law and regulations including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HlP AA) C.F.R. Parts 160-164.
