Description

This suit by Louise K. Maupin, et al, d/b/a Maupin Construction Company, arose out of a suit filed against them by Theo P. Meyer, Eugene L. Meyer and Theo P. Meyer, Jr., to recover damages to the Meyers property. Argonaut Southwest Insurance Company, Maupins insurer and petitioner here, refused to defend the Meyers suit after timely notice. Maupin then brought this suit against Argonaut for the amount of the Meyers judgment against Maupin and attorneys fees. The trial court, without a jury, granted judgment against Argonaut, the insurer, upon an agreed statement of facts. The court of civil appeals affirmed the trial courts judgment except for attorneys fees, and held the insurer had no duty to defend the suit which was based on an intentional tort. 485 S.W.2d 291.
