Description
The question before us in this cause concerns attorneys fees under Texas Revised Civil Statutes article 2226. The trial court rendered judgment on a jury verdict for respondent Cave and awarded him attorneys fees necessary in prosecuting that action. The court of civil appeals upheld the reasonableness of the attorneys fee award. 597 S.W.2d 37. The question presented to this Court is whether the original demand for payment upon petitioner Findlay was excessive as a matter of law, thus discharging any liability for fees expended in litigation thereafter. We hold that it was not.
