Description

This suit involves a dispute over whether foundation damage to appellees C. Robert Mason and Deborah Masons house is covered under appellant Allstate Texas Lloydss homeowners insurance policy. The policy excludes coverage for loss caused by "settling, cracking, bulging, shrinkage, or expansion of foundations, walls, floors, ceilings." Excepted from this exclusion is loss caused by "Accidental Discharge, Leakage or Overflow of Water or Steam from within a plumbing, heating or air conditioning system or household appliance." At issue is whether foundation and other related damages to the Masons house were caused by a plumbing leak. Allstate denied coverage, and the Masons sued for breach of contract, the breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, unconscionable conduct, and unfair or deceptive acts or practices under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act and the Texas Insurance Code. Following a jury trial, the trial court rendered judgment on the jury verdict, awarding the Masons $163,159.76 in actual damages, $88,561.97 in statutory damages, $74,600 in attorneys fees, $49,216.02 costs in pre- and post-judgment interest and costs, and $3.5 million in exemplary damages.
