Description
This appeal involves two causes which were consolidated and tried together. One is a suit by appellee against appellant to impress a constructive trust upon a certain tract of land situated in Bandera County, Texas, fronting on Medina Lake and known as "Frosty Point", and the other, a suit for actual and exemplary damages by appellee against appellant by reason of the conversion of certain personal property. The first suit is Cause No. F-119781 on the trial court docket, and the second, Cause No. F-128875 on said docket. Upon a jury verdict on special issues, judgment was rendered adjudging appellee to be the owner in fee simple of an undivided one-half interest in and to the subject land, and divesting appellant of any title or claim to said one-half interest. Judgment was also rendered, in favor of appellee and against appellant, for actual damages in the sum of $1,660.50, exemplary damages in the sum of $1500.00 and costs in the sum of $236.70; and requiring the sum of $6,250.00, less the recovery against appellant, to be paid by appellee into the registry of the court, for the benefit of appellant as the purchase price of the property vested in appellee. The first suit above mentioned will hereafter be called "The Land Suit", and the second suit, "The Damage Suit." Appellant will be called Holland and appellee, Lesesne.
