OPINION

TIM TAFT, Justice.

Fair Deal Auto Sales, appellant, challenges a $2,000 judgment rendered in favor of Janet Brantley, appellee, on her claim that Fair Deal wrongfully repossessed her automobile. Brantley recovered the judgment after Fair Deal appealed an earlier, adverse judgment of $500 from the justice court. Fair Deal challenges the factual sufficiency of the evidence to support the judgment. Brantley contends Fair Deal’s appeal is frivolous and asks us to award her damages as a sanction. We affirm, and deny Brantley’s motion for sanction.
