Texas Supreme Court
Philadelphia Indemnity Insurance Company, A/s/o Mirsan, L.p., D/b/a Sienna Ridge Apartments, Petitioner v. Carmen…
May 13, 201659 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 743
Summary
The Texas Supreme Court held that the lease’s reimbursement provision is unambiguous and, despite its broad language, is not void on public‑policy grounds because the plaintiff failed to prove the statutory predicate required to render it unenforceable; the court reversed the appellate court’s public‑policy invalidation, affirmed the finding of ambiguity, and remanded for further consideration of the tenant’s remaining defenses.
