Description
Roy Hernandez, individually and d/b/a/ Hernandez Roofing and Philip Lautensack filed cross appeals from a judgment in favor of Lautensack concerning the roof Hernandez put on Lautensacks house. In three issues, Hernandez argues that Lautensacks presuit notice under the Residential Construction Liability Act was untimely, that there was no evidence that Lautensacks alleged damages were reasonable, and that the trial court erred in awarding attorneys fees to Lautensack because his presuit demand was excessive. In two issues, Lautensack argues that the evidence conclusively proved his attorneys fees in an amount double what the jury awarded to him and that the trial court erred by refusing to reopen testimony so that Lautensacks counsel could testify about appellate attorneys fees. We modify the trial courts judgment and affirm it as modified.
