Iskander and Adoption Properties, L.P. for enforce provisions in contracts between the parties to take back lots the defendants purchased at the inception of the development of The Cascades located on the shore of Bellwood Lake in Travis County.
Defendants counterclaimed asserting that plaintiff committed fraud and deceptive trade violation in the sale of the lots to them.
