Lon Smith & Associates, Inc. and § From the 236th District Court A-1 Systems, Inc., d/b/a Lon Smith Roofing and Construction § of Tarrant County (236-267881-13) v. § August 3, 2017 Joe Key and Stacci Key § Opinion by Justice Walker

JUDGMENT This court has considered the record on appeal in this case and holds that there was error in part of the trial court’s October 15, 2015 class certification order. It is ordered that the class certification order of the trial court is affirmed in part and reversed in part. We affirm that portion of the trial court’s class certification order that certifies for class treatment the Keys’ declaratory-judgment claim and the Keys’ DTPA claim based on section 17.50(a)(4) (Violation of Chapter 541 of the Texas Insurance Code). We reverse that portion of the trial court’s class certification order that certifies for class treatment the Keys’ DTPA claim based on section 17.50(a)(3) (Unconscionability). We remand this cause to the trial court: (1) with instructions to decertify the DTPA section 17.50(a)(3) (Unconscionability) claim, and (2) for further class proceedings.

It is further ordered that all parties shall bear their own costs of this appeal, for which let execution issue.
