No. C-3416.

685 S.W.2d 649 (1985)

Robert C. MATTHEWS et ux., Petitioners, v. CANDLEWOOD BUILDERS, INC. et al., Respondents.

Supreme Court of Texas.

March 6, 1985.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Earl Rutledge, Fort Worth, for petitioners.

Lively, Wilson & Gieb, John Lively and Conrad Kasselman, Jr., Fort Worth, for respondents.


PER CURIAM.

The question we review is whether Matthews was entitled to recover attorney fees on his counterclaim that Candlewood failed to timely complete a residence. In an unpublished opinion, the court of appeals held that Matthews was not entitled to attorney fees. We reverse the court of appeals' denial of Matthews' attorney fees and render judgment that Matthews recover these fees. We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals in all other respects.
