MORTGAGE, LLC, Appellees § Opinion by Chief Justice Sudderth
JUDGMENT
This court has considered the record on appeal in this case and holds that there
was error in part of the trial court’s judgment. It is ordered that the judgment of the
trial court is affirmed in part and reversed in part. We affirm the trial court’s no-
evidence summary judgment in favor of Appellees. We reverse the traditional
summary judgment as to The Bank of New York Mellon’s counterclaims for judicial
foreclosure and writ of possession, and we remand this case to the trial court for
further proceedings not inconsistent with this opinion.
It is further ordered that each party shall bear their own costs of this appeal, for
which let execution issue.
