Supreme Court of Texas

In a suit between parties over various disagreements that had arisen among them concerning their joint participation in oil and gas ventures, a court of appeals' judgment is reversed in part where: 1) respondents could not cease to share in expenses they had earlier agreed to pay, yet still insist in sharing in the recovery pursuant to the same agreement; and 2) the court of appeals erred in affirming the trial court's enforcement of a litigation recovery agreement, and in enforcing certain agreements for future wells.
