DEFENDANT GREG HANCOCK'S LIST OF CONTROVERTED FACTS IN RESPONSE TO MERITAGE'S MOTION FOR PARTIAL SUMMARY JUDGMENT
Defendants.
14 15
Defendant Greg Hancock controverts the following Statements of Fact proffered by
16 17
Meritage in support of its renewed motion for partial summary judgment:1 6. Statement is argumentative and irrelevant; the License Agreement's covenant by
18
Meritage not to diminish the Hancock name is entirely independent of any action or inaction
19
by Greg Hancock.
20
8. The statement is totally misleading. Aside from the fact that the word "usurp" was
21
never used by Rick Hancock, the testimony at Exh. 7, 49:2 to 50:20 relates to Beazer Homes
22
back in 1993; 54:24 to 61:12 relates entirely to Beazer; 68:4 to 71:20 reflects Rick
23
Hancock's opinion that Hancock homes had a reputation for high quality; 102:20-24
24
establishes that warranties are important; and 181:1-22 has to do with Rick Hancock wanting
25
to use his own name for his building company.
26

Numerical reference is to Meritage's numbered statements.

9. The statement is no more than an inaccurate legal and factual conclusion. 10. The statement is only erroneous conclusion, and Meritage has offered no evidence of confusion; to the contrary, the Hancocks have offered Declarations and pages of deposition testimony that nobody was or is confused. 11. Only establishes that Rick Hancock has email capability, and Exh. 7, 214:14 to 217:15 establishes nothing whatever about confusion. 14. Misleading. The entirety of Rick Hancock's subdivision sign cannot be seen or read from either I10 or the off-ramp on Watson. 15. Meritage is not the exclusive licensee; the license was canceled. 25. Greg Hancock had nothing to do with the opening of Rick Hancock Homes, but even if he had there was no violation of any court order; the Court denied Meritage's renewed application for TRO as moot, and the matter was never again raised by Meritage. 26. Argumentative and absurd; there is no such evidence. 27. A total distortion of the testimony; Greg Hancock testified that numerous factors caused him stress, including the working conditions at Meritage. 28. States a conclusion not based on the testimony cited. SUBMITTED this 27th day of December, 2006. FRISBEE & BOSTOCK, PLC /s/ Robert M. Frisbee Robert M. Frisbee Attorney for Greg Hancock
