Description
This is an appeal of a judgment awarding $834,299 in damages and $166,250 in attorney's fees to plaintiff and appellee, Valence Operating Company, for breach of contract by defendant and appellant, ExxonMobil Corporation, after a three-day bench trial. In six issues, ExxonMobil contends that the trial court erred by (1) misconstruing the maintenance-of-interest provision of the parties' joint operating agreement; (2) admitting evidence of ExxonMobil's relationship with a third party; (3) finding that ExxonMobil breached the maintenance-of-interest provision; (4) awarding Valence damages for breach; (5) awarding Valence attorney's fees; and (6) awarding Valence prejudgment interest. As a preliminary matter underlying all of these issues, ExxonMobil contends that Valence should never have been allowed to adduce evidence of breach of contract because it had filed no timely pleading in which it made proper allegations of breach or of damages. By opinion issued October 28, 2004, we modified the judgment and, as modified, affirmed. Both parties moved for rehearing. We now grant the motions for rehearing of both parties, withdraw our October 28 opinion, and issue this opinion in its stead. We affirm.
