       As stated in the Court’s opinion of this date, we find reversible error in the judgment of the
court below. Therefore, we affirm the trial court’s summary judgment on Lee’s negligence and
breach of contract causes of action. We reverse the trial court’s summary judgment on Lee’s
DTPA and Insurance Code causes of action. We remand this case to the trial court for further
proceedings consistent with this opinion.
       We further order that the appellant and appellees split all costs of this appeal.
