BENNETT WHITE, P.C. § IN THE DISTRICT COURT § vs. § IN AND FOR § WENDELL REEDER § WOOD COUNTY, TEXAS DEFENDANT WENDELL REEDER'S RESPONSE AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT TO PLAINTIFF' MOTION TO DISQUALIFY TO THE HONORABLE JUDGE OF SAID COURT: COMES NOW, WENDELL REEDER, Defendant in the above-entitled and numbered cause, and files this his Response to Plaintiffs Motion to Disqualify and Brief in Support, and in support of such Response would respectfully show unto the Court as follows: I. Background Plaintiff filed suit against his former client, Wendell Reeder, alleging that the Mr. Reeder failed to pay all of the legal fees incurred by Plaintiff on behalf of Mr. Reeder in the course of Plaintiffs representation of Mr. Reeder. During a portion of the time that Plaintiff represented Mr. Reeder, a legal assistant named Jennifer Smith worked for Plaintiff. On April 14, 2015, Mr. Reeder retained the undersigned counsel to represent him individually, as well as in a number of other business and litigation related matters. The majority of these matters were previously handled by Plaintiffs firm. On the same day as the undersigned counsel was retained by Mr. Reeder, Plaintiff filed this suit suing Mr. Reeder for alleged unpaid legal fees. DEFENDANT WENDELL REED ER'S RESPONSE AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT TO PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO DISQUALIFY PAGEl 0082 Prior to being retained by Mr. Reeder, the undersigned counsel was contacted by Ms. Smith who inquired about a position with the undersigned's law office. 1 Ms. Smith was re-hired by Mayo Mendolia & Vice, LLP on April 16, 2015. Prior to the retention of Mr. Reeder as a client, there were other cases in which both the law office of Mayo Mendolia & Vice, LLP and Plaintiff were involved. Therefore, when Ms. Smith was re-hired by Mayo Mendolia & Vice, LLP, the undersigned counsel had already contemplated the segregation of Ms. Smith from these files as a matter of precaution. At the time of Ms. Smith's re- hire, all cases in which Mayo Mendolia & Vice, LLP were involved in any capacity with Plaintiffs office were disclosed to Ms. Smith. Instruction was issued by the undersigned counsel to Ms. Smith and all firm personnel that Ms. Smith was to field no calls associated with these files, was not to access these files via the firm server or by viewing the hard files, and was not to discuss these files, even in casual conversation, with any firm employee or partner until further notice from the undersigned counsel. All of these files were assigned to another legal assistant in the office and the hard files were placed in a segregated office from Ms. Smith's office. Since the commencement of Ms. Smith's employment with this office, the utmost care has been taken to segregate Ms. Smith from any file in which she may have had prior involvement. To date, Ms. Smith has remained completely isolated from any file where representation, at some point, may have been by Plaintiffs office. This statement is particularly true in relation to the files, including this one, associated with Mr. Reeder. 1 Ms. Smith had previously worked for Mayo Mendolia & Vice, LLP, and formerly for Mayo Mendolia & Stan-, LLP, from 2008 until March 2012. DEFENDANT WENDELL REEDER'S RESPONSE AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT TO PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO DISQUALIFY PAGE2 0083 Evidence in Support of Response 1. Affidavit of J. Keith Mayo- attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and incorporated herein by reference. 11. Argument and Authorities The Texas Rules of Professional Conduct were made and incorporated so that attorneys in the state of Texas would not act unprofessionally and unethically when representing the interests of their clients or in any situation where a lack of ethics will have negative effects on an involved party. This is not one of those cases. Ms. Smith has not done any work on the Bennett v. Reeder case since beginning work at the Mayo, Mendolia & Vice, nor has she divulged any confidential information about the case to anyone at the firm. Since the Defendant's attorney properly screened Ms. Smith and made sure she did not divulge any information concerning this action, the Court should not grant the Plaintiffs motion to disqualify and allow the Defendant' s attorney to participate in this trial. I. Ms. Smith was properly screened about the matter before any work was done on the case. In America, federal antitrust laws give prospective employees the right to solicit their own employment and choose from any job offer that is presented to them. Spectrum Sports, Inc. v. McQuillan, 506 U.S. 447 (1993). Disqualifying the Defendant's Attorney simply because he hired an employee, an employee with a sterling reputation in the legal industry, would not only be a miscarriage of justice, but would violate Section II of the Sherman Antitrust Act. It is not unreasonable to believe that attorneys in the Tyler, Texas area, where Ms. Smith lives, would be regular opponents in Court so this disqualification effectively bars Ms. Smith from working as a paralegal anywhere in the area she lives. This cannot be the intent of the Texas Rules of Professional DEFENDANT WENDELL REEDER'S RESPONSE AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT TO PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO DISQUALIFY PAGE3 0084 Conduct pertaining to disqualification. The Texas Supreme Court agrees. Because a potential employer would be less inclined to hire paralegals due to the threat of disqualification, the Court held that any restrictions on the non-lawyer should be held to the minimum necessary to protect confidentiality. Phoenix Founders, Inc. v. Marshall, 87 S. W.2d 831, 835 (1994). The court held that a non-lawyer employee must be cautioned not to disclose any information relating to the representation of a client of the former employer and should also be instructed to not work on any matter on which the employee worked during the prior employment. Phoenix Founders, 87 S.W.2d 831, 835. In this case, the Defendant's attorney instructed Ms. Smith not to disclose any information or to work on any matter that she worked on as a member of the Plaintiffs firm. Not only has Ms. Smith not disclosed any information, but she hasn't been anywhere near any of the work done on aforementioned matters. The Court also calls for "other reasonable steps" to be made to ensure that no information is leaked. Id. When this case was brought to the Defendant's attorney's firm, Ms. Smith was completely segregated from all the work. The files were made unavailable for her access. The physical files were moved to a segregated ofiice and Ms. Smith was again instructed not to access those files. Furthermore, staff was instructed to isolate Ms. Smith from any phone calls related to these cases and this case in particular. The distinct possibility of Ms. Smith using this information is not enough to disqualify the Defendant's attorney. The Defendant's attorney took the necessary steps to ensure that Ms. Smith would not divulge any information at all concerning her work on these files while employed by Plaintiff. Defendant should be allowed to participate in this case and vigorously defend his client. Our State's highest court made this ruling because it did not want to create a chilling effect on the DEFENDANT WENDELL REEDER'S RESPONSE AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT TO PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO DISQUALIFY PAGE4 0085 employment of capable paralegals when the risk of divulging confidential or competing information has been duly controlled by measured steps. II. Ms. Smith does not present a genuine threat of disclosure of the information. The Texas Rules of Professional Conduct do not allow a lawyer who has previously represented a client to use information that would create a disadvantage for the former client. Tex. R. Prof. Conduct l .09(a)(3). These same rules apply to legal assistants and clerks under direct supervision of partners in law firms as well. Texas. R. Prof. Conduct 5.03(b)(l). In Texas, the burden of proof is on the movant to disqualify opposing council by establishing, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the matter in question is substantially related to matters previously worked on by the attorney or legal assistant, that there is a genuine threat of disclosure, and [the movant] must have factual evidence to support this. Home fns . Co. v. Marsh, 790 S.W.2d 749, 753 (1990). Neither party disputes the fact that Ms. Smith worked directly on this case. In fact, Ms. Smith was one of three legal assistants employed by the Plaintiff with access to confidential information about this case. Ms. Smith has taken on a full caseload at the Defendant's attorney's firm and has been occupied with other, unrelated work since taking the job. The Defendant's attorney has two [other] legal assistants and a clerk working on the matter at hand and they have been instructed not to speak about the matter to Ms. Smith. Ms. Smith has been otherwise occupied the entire time she has been employed by the Defendant's attorney and has not assisted any employee or member of the firm in handling this case, thus she is not a legitimate threat to divulge information. Unless opposing council can submit evidence that proves Ms. Smith is a threat to divulge confidential information, it is not proper for the Defendant' s Attorney to excuse himself from DEFENDANT WENDELL REEDER'S RESPONSE AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT TO PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO DISQUALIFY PAGES 0086 working on this case. Defendant respectfully requests that the Court DENY Plaintiffs request for these reasons. III. Ms. Smith has not spoken of or worked on any matter related to her employment by the Plaintiff. Now, the court must question whether the proper effect of screening has occurred. "Ordinarily, disqualification is not required as long as the practical effect of formal screening has been achieved." Jn Re Complex Asbestos Litigation, 232 Cal.App.3d 572, 596. The challenged attorney must show that the employee in question has not and will not disclose any of the relevant information. Asbestos, 232 Cal.App.3d 572, 596. Since leaving the Plaintiffs firm, Ms. Smith has not worked on or spoken of any matter that she worked on during her time as an employee of the Plaintiff. As a dedicated employee, Ms. Smith understands the importance of a client's right to privilege and that leaking any information related to this matter would be unethical. Despite her vigorous screening and all the extreme measures taken to create a Chinese Wall, if Ms. Smith were to leak information, the Defendant's attorney would have no choice but to disqualify himself. id Ms. Smith was specifically told not to work the case and or look over the files. She did not say a word about the case to anyone at the firm. When the Defondant's attorney screened Ms. Smith, he became aware of her knowledge of this case and took the proper steps to make sure she would not volunteer any confidential information. Despite the fact that she has complete knowledge of the case, Ms. Smith has not broken privileged with her former employer. The legal assistants and clerk DEFENDANT WENDELL REED ER'S RESPONSE AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT TO PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO lJISQUt\LIFY PAGE6 0087 working on the case were also instructed not to speak with Ms. Smith under any circumstances about the case. Conclusion Because Ms. Smith has been properly screened and has not worked on or divulged any confidential information concerning the matter at hand, the Defendant's attorney should not be disqualified from working on this case. None of the actions taken by Mayo, Mendolia & Vice, LLP violate the Texas Rules of Professional Conduct with respect to conflicts of interest. Disqualifying the Defendant's attorney would not only severely inhibit the Defendant's case, but would violate federal antitrust laws and keep Ms. Smith from effecti vcly providing for her family because no firms in the Tyler, Texas area who have any working relationship wiLh the Plaintiff would hire her. Ms. Smith was told not to work on the case and has not worked on the case. Since none of Ms. Smith's actions while working for the Defendant's attorney endangers the Plaintiffs right to confidence, the Defendant therefore requests that the Court deny his motion for disqualification of the Defendant's attorney, and requests such other and further relief as to which Defendant may show himself justly entitled.

BENNETT WHITE, P.C., § IN THE DISTRICT COURT Plaintiff, § § V. § INAND FOR § § WENDELL REEDER, § Defendant. § WOOD COUNTY, TEXAS RESPONSE TO SUMMARY JUDGMENT SUBJECT TO MOTION FOR CONTINUANCE OF SUMMARY JUDGMENT HEARING Defendant, Wendell Reeder responds to plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment, subject to his separately filed motion for continuance of the hearing on plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment as follows: This Court should deny White’s traditional motion for summary of judgment for the following reasons:  White is not entitled to suit on sworn account treatment; this case wasn’t pleaded as a suit on sworn account.  White failed to make his prima facie burden on suit on sworn account.  White failed to establish a breach of contract action and subsequent entitlement to attorney fees “as a matter of law.”  This motion is premature, as discussed in the companion motion for continuance; discovery needs to be conducted. 1 0103 I. Background White sued Reeder for breach of contract, alleging that Reeder hired White to perform attorney services, and failed to pay $212,597.07 in attorney fees.1 White also seeks an award of 12% interest, costs of court, and $70,000 in attorney fees for this proceeding. Reeder contests the fees represented to be charged by White, and contests that the fees were reasonable and necessary for the work accomplished. Exhibit 1. Further, Reeder believes that charges and fees charged by White and his office reflect actions taken by White that were not in compliance with or in furtherance of the client’s particular instructions and strategies in the case. Exhibit 1. Reeder cannot provide more specific explanation of White’s departures from instruction until White actually provides the billing statements with description of legal services provided and time spent. Exhibit 1. The hearing on Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment is currently scheduled to take place on August 25, 2015. Procedurally, a Motion for Summary Judgment is premature as Defendant has had virtually no opportunity to complete or even begin discovery. A timeline of the proceeding in this case are as follows: 4/14/15 Plaintiff’s Original Petition filed. 6/1/15 Defendant Wendell Reeder’s Original Answer and General Denial filed. 6/11/15 Motion to Disqualify J. Keith Mayo and Mayo Mendolia & Vice, LLP as Attorney for Defendant Wendell Reeder filed. 6/19/15 Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment filed. 6/23/15 Order Granting Motion to Disqualify J. Keith Mayo and Mayo Mendolia & Vice, LLP as Attorney for Defendant Wendell Reeder filed. 1 See Plaintiff’s Original Petition, on file. 2 0104 Defendant has recently retained additional counsel to represent him in this matter. A Notice of Appearance of Additional Counsel naming Jack Walker has been filed in this matter concurrently with this motion. As of the date of filing of this Motion for Continuance, the Defendant has only been in the case for approximately 52 days. Defendant is entitled to the opportunity to conduct discovery and, at a minimum obtain the deposition of the Plaintiff, J. Bennett White with J. Bennett White, P.C. II. Table of Exhibits Reeder attached the following exhibits which are incorporated by reference as if set forth in full: Exhibit 1 Affidavit of Wendell Reeder. Plaintiff also relies upon and incorporates all pleadings on file. III. Standard of Review When a movant files a traditional motion for summary judgment based on the summary judgment evidence, the court can grant the motion only when the movant’s evidence, “as a matter of law,” either conclusively establishes all the elements of the movant’s affirmative defense or conclusively disproves the facts of at least one element of the nonmovant’s claim. M.D. Anderson Hosp. and Tumor Inst. v. Willrich, 28 S.W.3d 22, 23 (Tex. 2000); Park Place Hosp. v. Estate of Milo, 909 S.W.2d 508, 511 (Tex. 1995). When evaluating a motion for summary judgment based on summary judgment proof, the trial court must do the following: (1) Assume all the nonmovant’s proof is true. Limestone Prods. Distrib. v. McNamara, 71 S.W.3d 308, 311 (Tex. 2002); Nixon v. Mr. Prop. Mgmt. Co., 690 S.W.2d 546 3 0105 (2) Indulge every reasonable inference in favor of the nonmovant. Provident Life & Acc. Ins. Co. v. Knott, 128 S.W.3d 211, 215 (Tex. 2003). (3) Resolve all doubts about the existence of a genuine issue of a material fact against the movant. M.D. Anderson Hosp. v. Willrich, 28 S.W.3d 22, 23 (2000). The movant bears the burden of showing that no genuine issue of material fact exists and that it is entitled to summary judgment as a matter of law. American Tobacco Co. v. Grinnell, 951 S.W.2d 420, 425 (Tex. 1997). The nonmovant has no burden to respond to a summary judgment motion unless the movant conclusively establishes its cause of action. Id. If the movant meets his burden, the burden then shifts to the non-movant to present competent summary judgment evidence creating a genuine issue of material fact. Kaye v. Harris County Mun. Util. Dist. No. 9, 866 S.W.2d 791, 793 (Tex. App. – Houston [14th Dist.] 1993, no writ) (citing McConnell v. Southside Indep. Sch, Dist., 858 S.W. 2d 337, 341 (Tex. 1993)). What Constitutes a Material Fact Issue? In deciding whether there is a material fact issue precluding summary judgment, evidence favorable to the non-movant will be taken as true; every reasonable inference must be indulged in favor of the non-movant and any doubts resolved in its favor. Hughes Wood Products, Inc. v. Wagner, 18 S.W.3d 202, 205, 43 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 595 (Tex. 2000). The evidentiary standard in reviewing a summary judgment is well-known to this court: We must... view the evidence and its reasonable inferences in the light most favorable to the nonmovant. Great American Reserve Ins. Co. v. San Antonio Plumbing Supply Col, 391 S.W.2d 41, 47 (Tex. 1965). In deciding whether there is a material fact issue precluding summary judgment, all conflicts in the evidence will be disregarded and the evidence favorable to the nonmovant will be accepted as true. Harwell v. State Farm Mut. Auto Ins. Co., 896 S.W.2d 170, 173 (Tex. 1995). Evidence that favors the movant’s position will not be considered unless it is uncontroverted. Great American, 391 S.W.2d at 47. 4 0106 Davis v. City of Palestine, 988 S.W.2d 854, 857 (Tex. App.—Tyler 1999, no pet.). Additionally, “Conflicting testimony of the same witness on the same issue creates a fact issue for the fact finder to decide.” Washington v. Aetna Cas. & Surety Co., 521 S.W.2d 313, 316 (Tex. Civ. App.—Fort Worth 1975, no writ), emphasis added; Maleski v. Tex. Emp. Ins. Ass’n., 471 S.W.2d 416, 421 (Tex. Civ. App.—Corpus Christi 1971, no writ). IV. Argument and Authorities White sued Reeder for breach of contract, and has failed to establish his right to a traditional summary judgment, “as a matter of law.” 1. White failed to plead a Suit on Sworn Account, and thus is not entitled to avail himself of Rule 185’s procedural advantages. White’s claim is for breach of contract. White failed to plead breach of contract in a way that meets Rule 185’s elements and thus is not allowed to harness a suit on sworn account’s procedural benefits. Rule 185 states that an open account includes, “any claim… for personal services rendered.” See Tex. R. Civ. P. 185; Panditi v. Apostle, 180 S.W.3d 924, 926 (Tex. App.---Dallas 2006, no pet.). Rule 185 is not a rule of substantive law, but rather, a rule of procedure regarding the evidence necessary to establish a prima facie right of recovery for certain types of contractual claims. Id. It is merely a rule of evidence which, if there is no proper denial, avoids the necessity of proving the correctness of the account. Long v. Miken Oil, Inc., 2014 Tex. App. LEXIS 9189, at *29 (Tex. App.---Tyler 2014, no pet.). Proof of the contract or sale that gave rise to the account must be made as alleged. Id. at 30. 5 0107 If a plaintiff’s pleading of a sworn account is defective or if the defendant files a proper sworn denial, the plaintiff must offer proof of the sworn account. Id. In a suit on sworn account, the plaintiff must prove: (1) there was a sale or delivery of the goods or services, (2) the charges on the account are just, that is, the prices charged are in accordance with an agreement or, in the absence of an agreement, are usual, customary and reasonable, and (3) the amount remains unpaid. Id. The account must show with reasonable certainty the name, date and charge for each item, and provide specifics or details as to how the figures were arrived at. Panditi, 180 S.W.3d at 926. A claim is liquidated for a suit on sworn account if the amount of damages may be accurately calculated by the trial court from the “factual, as opposed to the conclusory,” allegations in the plaintiffs’ petition and the instrument in writing. Id. When a plaintiff’s suit on sworn account is not based on a liquidated amount, the pleadings are neutralized and the plaintiff must prove his case at common law. Id. A systematic record must have been kept on all claims brought under the rule. Id. at 31. A suit on sworn account must be accompanied by the affidavit of the plaintiff, his agent or his attorney, that (1) the claim is within the knowledge of the affiant, (2) that the claim is just and true, (3) the account is due, and (4) all just and lawful offsets, payments and credits have been allowed. Id. A defendant is not required to file a sworn denial if the plaintiff’s suit on a sworn account is not properly pleaded. Id. 6 0108 a. White failed to establish his prima facie case under Rule 185, and thus is not entitled to suit on sworn account treatment. White filed a petition wholly deficient of Rule 185’s requirements. Namely, the petition was conclusory and:  Failed to attach an affidavit establishing facts under oath  Failed to contain facts establishing systematic record(s) of transaction(s)  Failed to contain facts establishing that the amount charged were usual, customary and reasonable  Failed to contain facts establishing a contract between the parties  Failed to contain facts establishing the lawful payments, offsets and credits applied to the account. TEX. R. CIV. P. 185; Andrews v. ETMC, 885 S.W.2d 264 (Tex. App.—Tyler 1994, no writ). At a minimum, the sworn information in support of a Rule 185 suit on sworn account for attorney fees should have included statements that list the date and description of legal services provided, the number of hours spent, etc., so that the defendant could have something more than mere conclusions to controvert. Panditi, 180 S.W.3d at 927. In every way, White’s petition fails to establish its prima facie burden under Rule 185. b. Nonetheless, Reeder has filed a sworn denial, and White is put to his burden of proof. Reeder is not required to file a sworn denial. “A defendant is not required to file a sworn denial if the plaintiff’s suit on a sworn account was not properly pleaded.” Panditi, 180 S.W.3d at 926. As explained above, because White didn’t properly plead a sworn account, this is a breach of contract action and nothing more. 7 0109 The purpose is straightforward. Defendant cannot be expected to refute allegations that haven’t been clearly and particularly alleged and sworn under oath in the first place. Nonetheless, Reeder has filed a sworn denial, and White must establish his right to recovery by common law. Where a defendant files a verified denial, he is permitted to dispute the receipt of services and correctness of the charges. Panditi, 180 S.W.3d at 926. Here, Reeder has alleged in his sworn denial that the fees were improper. Ashton Grove L.C. v. Jackson Walker L.L.P., 366 S.W.3d 790, 798 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2012, no pet.). Reeder contests the fees represented to be charged by White, and contests that the fees were reasonable and necessary for the work accomplished. Exhibit 1. Further, Reeder believes that charges and fees charged by White and his office reflect actions taken by White that were not in compliance with or in furtherance of the client’s particular instructions and strategies in the case. Exhibit 1. Reeder cannot provide more specific explanation of White’s departures from instruction until White actually provides the billing statements with description of legal services provided and time spent. Exhibit 1. 3. White failed to satisfy Andersen Requirements. An examination of the documents attached to White’s traditional motion for summary judgment reveals flimsy, conclusory information that cannot establish his claim as a matter of law. In order to prevail on his motion for summary judgment, White must establish his claim for breach of contract, the link between breach of contract and damages, and his contract damages themselves “as a matter of law,” which he cannot do. Ashton, 366 S.W.3d at 797-98. As explained above, Reeder has alleged in his sworn denial that the fees were improper. Id. at 798. 8 0110 The Andersen factors apply in determining the reasonableness of attorney fees, and these factors include: (1) the time and labor required and difficulty of the issues involved; (2) the likelihood that acceptance of the employment will preclude other employment by the lawyer; (3) the fees customarily charged in the locality for similar legal services; (4) the amount involved and results obtained; (5) the time limitations imposed by the client or the circumstances; (6) the nature and length of the professional relationship with the client; (7) the experience, reputation, and ability of the lawyer performing the services; and (8) whether the fee is fixed or contingent on the result obtained. Ashton, 366 S.W.3d at 799. In support of his motion, White attaches an affidavit with exhibits. The affidavit fails to set forward any evidence regarding factors such as fees customarily charged for similar circumstances, or the experience or reputation of the lawyers involved. White attaches documents he refers to as a “summary of account activity,” containing conclusory information for seven matters, labeled as Exhibits 4-10. The financial records attached fail to set forward any information regarding the actual hours worked on a particular day on a given file, or a description of legal services provided during that time spent. They are little more than meaningless numbers, which, in a vacuum, cannot establish a claim as a matter of law. 4. Continuance of summary judgment hearing is appropriate. As explained in the companion motion, a continuance of any summary judgment hearing is appropriate. As of the date of filing of the Motion for Continuance, the Defendant has only been in the case for approximately 52 days. Defendant is entitled to the opportunity to conduct 9 0111 discovery and, at a minimum obtain the deposition of the Plaintiff, J. Bennett White with J. Bennett White, P.C. The motion for continuance is adopted and incorporated as if set forth fully. And this response is subject to the motion for continuance. V. Conclusion Accordingly, this Court should deny White’s motion for summary judgment. Respectfully submitted, The Arcadia Theater 121 N.

BENNETT WHITE, P.C., § IN THE DISTRICT COURT Plaintiff, § § v. § INANDFOR § § WENDELL REEDER, § Defendant. § WOOD COUNTY, TEXAS FIRST AMENDED ANSWER Defendant, WENDELL REEDER, files this first amended answer and general denial, and affidavit in support, as follows: I. General Denial Defendant generally denies the allegations in plaintiffs original petition. II. Objection to Consideration as Suit ou Sworn Account, and Special Exceptions Defendant objects and specially excepts to plaintiffs petition because the claims are not properly brought as a suit on a sworn account. This is a suit for breach of contract arising from an attorney client relationship. White failed to plead breach of contract in a way that meets Rule 185' s elements and thus is not allowed to harness a suit on sworn account's procedural benefits. His pleadings are defective because they fail to establish by affidavit under oath any of the following: (!)there was a sale or delivery of the goods or services, (2) the charges on the account are just, that is, the prices charged are in accordance with an agreement or, in the absence of an agreement, are usual, customary and reasonable, and (3) the amount remains unpaid. 0117 (4) systematic records of transactions, such as the name, date and charge for each item, and provide specifics or details as to how the figures were anived at. (5) Failed to contain facts establishing the lawful payments, offsets and credits applied to the account. Defendant further objects and specially excepts to the conclusory nature of plaintiffs allegations. The usual and customary practice for attorneys is to make separate time entries detailing the date of service provided, amount of time spent, and description of legal service provided. Here, the amounts listed are nothing more than conclusions. When a plaintiffs suit on sworn account is not based on a liquidated amount, the pleadings are neutralized and the plaintiff must prove his case at common law. Conclusory totals do not satisfy the record keeping requirement of Rule 185. A defendant is not required to file a sworn denial if the plaintiffs suit on a sworn account is not properly pleaded. III. Verified Pleas Defendant denies the account on which plaintiff files suit because not each and every item of the account made the basis of plaintiffs suit is just or true. Defendant has filed an affidavit in support of this answer, and incorporates same as if set forth fully. 0118 Respectfully submitted, MARTIN WALKER.r.c. The Arcadia Theater 121 N.

After making his oath, he said: "My name is Wendell Reeder. I am more than 21 years of age and am of sound mind and capable of making this Affidavit. I have not been convicted of a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude ru1d I have personal knowledge of the facts set forth in this Affidavit and each are true and correct. "I have read Defendant's First Amended Answer in this matter and have personal knowledge of the matters contained therein and certify that conte11ts thereof are true and correct. "J. Bennett White and his staff performed legal services for me, i11dividually, in the seven matters that are identified in paragraph J of Plaintiff's Motion for Smnmary Judgment. For an array of reasons more specifically set forth below, I contest that the fees represented in paragraph 3 of Plaintitrs Motion for Summary Judgment, or the fees charged by Mr. White which proceeded these fees and were paid by me, were reasonable and necessary for the work accomplished or the tasks and strategy discussed by Mr. White and I prior to the commencement of his work. "! cannot provide specific instances of depaiture from strategy through the billing records at this time because I do not have a complete copy of the billing records for each of the 7 matters listed for the life of each case. I anticipate receiving copies of the billing records for each of these files from Mr. White's office, but have not to dale due to the relative youth of this case.

"Mr. White and his staff did not carry out particular directions and strategies in the above-referenced litigation and offered no explanation, legally sound or otherwise, as to why he did not follow my desired directives or strategies." "Charges and fees charged to me by Mr. White and his office reflect actions taken by Mr. White and his office that were not in compliance or in furtherance of my particular instructions and strategies in the case."
