Englert v. Englert

BOYD, Justice.

In this garnishment case, appellant Harry Englert challenges the judgment of the trial court finding him liable to appellee Edith Englert, the garnisher in the action. For the following reasons, we reverse the judgment of the trial court and render judgment in favor of appellant.

The relevant facts are undisputed. In 1985, Richard Englert conveyed his interest in a piece of real estate to appellant, his brother, in exchange for a promissory note. The note was to be paid in monthly installments of $858.98, with the first payment due on May 19,1985, and the last payment due in 1995.
