Description
Duncan Development, Inc. and R. H. Duncan, hereinafter called Duncan, sued John Haney and Craig Canon, hereinafter called Haney, to recover damages for breach of a construction contract. The trial court rendered judgment in favor of Duncan, the builder, for $444,207.80. The court of civil appeals reversed the judgment and remanded the cause, holding that Duncans proof of damages constituted inadmissible hearsay under the Texas Business Records Act, Tex.Rev.Civ.Stat.Ann. art. 3737e. 626 S.W.2d 61. The central question is whether Duncan properly proved a predicate for the admissibility of a summary representing work, services and materials furnished to Duncan by his many subcontractors on the construction project. We hold that Duncan properly qualified the summary for admission into evidence and, accordingly, reverse the judgment of the court of civil appeals.
