My question involves a consumer law issue in the state of Texas
Long story short I contracted w a H.O. And negotiated his claim to a much higher amount. Toward the end of the contract we had a problem w my painting sub which he claims made a mess of things
He did not allow me to remedy the interior problem but I continued to finish my contract/claim work. He somehow sent a completion letter in and his insurance co neglected to put my co name on the final check and he did not pay me the 10k owed. I have since filed a Constitutional lien being that it does not require predisclosure notice in Texas. A lawsuit has ensued and I have been representing myself so far. Through discovery I found that the insurance checks were made out to him, his Ex-Wife and mortgage co. He has to this date not paid and is claiming invalid lien which of course it is not. My question is since his ex-wife signed off on the check isnt she in some way responsible? He also has not paid his attorney because doesnt have the money. Her name is not on the title and was not on the insurance scope either. Isnt there a law like the Trust Law Statute that says if you accept monies for a service rendered and use it for something else thats its considered FRAUD?
