Rogers v. Continental Airline, Inc., 41 S.W.3d 196 (Tex. App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 2001, n.w.h.)

Mr. Briscoe represented Continental Airlines in the defense of a case brought by Gordon R. Rogers and Rogers Group International for an alleged breach of a letter of intent agreement. Mr. Briscoe obtained a summary judgment in favor of Continental Airlines three months after the suit, was filed. In their appeal, Rogers and Rogers Group International claimed, among other things, that the trial court erred in failing to grant a continuance to permit the Plaintiffs to conduct discovery. Mr. Briscoe represented Continental Airlines before the Fourteenth Court of Appeals, which affirmed the trial court’s judgment and ordered the appellants to reimburse Continental Airlines for its costs incurred in the appeal.
