FILED 7/20/2022 5:29 PM FELICIA PITRE DISTRICT CLERK DALLAS CO., TEXAS Madison McCarrier DEPUTY CAUSE NO. DC-22-00951 DIVERSITAS HOLDINGS LLC § IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF Plaintiff, § § v. § DALLAS COUNTY, TEXAS § CHAMP LOGISTICS, LLC; and JORGE A. § SAENZ aka JORGE SAENZ § Defendants. § 95th JUDICIAL COURT PLAINTIFF’S TRADITIONAL MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT TO THE HONORABLE JUDGE OF SAID COURT: COMES NOW Diversitas Holdings LLC (“Plaintiff”) and files this Traditional Motion for Summary Judgment pursuant to Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 166a(a) against Defendants Champ Logistics, LLC (“Champ Logistics”) and Jorge A. Saenz aka Jorge Saenz (“Saenz”), and in support of which would show as follows: I. INTRODUCTION 1. Prior to the date of suit, Champ Logistics entered into an equipment finance agreement with Plaintiff’s predecessor in interest. Under the terms of the agreement, certain equipment was financed for Champ Logistics in exchange for a promise to make monthly payments. As inducement for the agreement and financing, Saenz personally and unconditionally guaranteed payment of all obligations of Champ Logistics due under the agreement. 2. Champ Logistics and Saenz executed the equipment finance agreement and guaranty, and the third-party vendor was paid for the equipment. Thereafter, the agreement went into default for non-payment, and an outstanding balance remains. Plaintiff is the owner and holder of the equipment finance agreement and guaranty and now moves for summary judgment on its Page 1 of 9 breach of contract claims, seeking to recover from Champ Logistics and Saenz the outstanding balance owed. II. SUMMARY JUDGMENT EVIDENCE 3. In support of its Motion, Plaintiff refers the Court to the following, fully incorporating same by reference as if set forth herein verbatim and at length: Evidence Exhibit Affidavit of Jennifer Pealor 1 Equipment Finance Agreement No. 1207818.301 1-A Payment History 1-B Assignments 1-C Affidavit for Attorney Fees 2 III. APPLICABLE STANDARD FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT 4. Plaintiff’s Motion seeks traditional summary judgment pursuant to Tex. R. Civ. Pro. 166a(a). Under a traditional summary judgment standard, a plaintiff bears the burden of showing that there is no genuine issue of material fact, and that it is entitled to summary judgment as a matter of law. Nixon v. Mr. Property Management Co., Inc., 690 S.W.2d 546, 548-49 (Tex. 1985). Once a plaintiff has established its right to summary judgment as a matter of law, the burden then shifts to the defendant to present evidence raising a genuine issue of material fact, thereby precluding summary judgment. City Of Houston v. Clear Creek Basin Authority, 589 S.W.2d 671, 678-79 (Tex. 1979). Page 2 of 9 5. When moving for summary judgment, a plaintiff has no duty to disprove the affirmative defenses pled by defendants. Nicholson v. Memorial Hospital System, 722 S.W.2d 746, 749 (Tex. App. – Houston [14th Dist.] 1987, writ ref’d n.r.e.). Rather, parties seeking to rely upon an affirmative defense in opposing summary judgment bear the burden of coming forward with summary judgment evidence sufficient to raise an issue of fact on each element of that defense, in order to survive summary judgment. Brownlee v. Brownlee, 665 S.W.2d 111, 112 (Tex. 1984); Nicholson, 772 S.W.2d at 749. IV. STATEMENT OF FACTS 6. Prior to the date of suit, Champ Logistics entered into Equipment Finance Agreement No. 1207818.301 (the “Agreement”) with Plaintiff’s predecessor in interest. Exhibit 1, Affidavit of Jennifer Pealor, at ¶3; see Agreement, a true and correct copy of which is attached to the Affidavit of Jennifer Pealor as Exhibit 1-A. Under the terms of the Agreement, Plaintiff’s predecessor in interest financed Champ Logistics’ purchase of certain business equipment, more specifically described as a Volvo VNL 660, VIN number 4V4NC9TG74N362995. See Exhibit 1-A. As consideration, Champ Logistics promised to make payments as described by the Agreement and granted a security interest in the Equipment to Plaintiff’s predecessor in interest. Id. 7. In conjunction with and to induce the lender to enter into the Agreement, Saenz executed a Personal Guaranty, pursuant to which he unconditionally guaranteed payment of all obligations of Champ Logistics due under the Agreement (the “Unconditional Guaranty”). See Pealor Aff. at ¶4; Exhibit 1-A, first page. Page 3 of 9 8. After receiving executed copies of the Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty from the defendants, Plaintiff’s predecessor in interest financed Champ Logistics’ purchase of the Equipment. See Pealor Aff. at ¶5. 9. Thereafter, the Agreement went into default for non-payment. Id. at ¶6; Payment History, a true and correct copy of which is attached to the Affidavit of Jennifer Pealor as Exhibit 1-B. Champ Logistics has failed to make payments as required by the Agreement, and Saenz has failed to make the payments on Champ Logistics’ behalf as required by the Unconditional Guaranty. Id. 10. Plaintiff then acquired all right, title and interest in the Agreement via an Assignment. Id. at ¶7; Assignment, a true and correct copy of which is attached to the Affidavit of Jennifer Pealor as Exhibit 1-C. The Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty are owned and held by Plaintiff. See Pealor Aff. at ¶7. 11. After taking into account the amounts owed to Plaintiff under the Agreement, fees, and charges, and subtracting all payments, credits and offsets, Champ Logistics owes an outstanding balance of $10,725.33, exclusive of attorneys’ fees, interest, and court costs. Id. at ¶8. It was therefore necessary for Plaintiff to retain the services of the Wright Law Group, PLLC to enforce the defendants’ duties under the Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty. Id. at ¶9. Accordingly, the Wright Law Group, PLLC filed the above-captioned action, asserting actual damages in the amount that remains unpaid under the Agreement. Further, in section 4 entitled “Payment; Security Deposit”, the Agreement provides for interest of 1.5% per month or the highest rate allowed by law on all past-due amounts. See Exhibit 1-A. Page 4 of 9 V. ARGUMENT & AUTHORITIES I. Breach of the Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty 12. Plaintiff has brought this motion for summary judgment – solely on its breach of contract claims – based on Champ Logistics and Saenz’s failures to pay the amounts due under the Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty. Under Texas law, a breach of contract claim has the following elements: 1) the existence of a valid contract; 2) performance or tendered performance by the plaintiff; 3) breach of the contract by the defendant; and 4) damages sustained by the plaintiff as a result of the breach. Valero Marketing & Supply Co. v. Kalama International, 51 S.W.3d 345, 351 (Tex. App. – Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, no pet.). 13. To recover for breach of a guaranty agreement, a plaintiff must establish: 1) the existence and ownership of the guaranty agreement; 2) the performance of the terms of the contract by the holder; 3) the occurrence of the condition upon which liability is based; and 4) the failure or refusal to perform the promise by the guarantor. Corona v. Pilgrim’s Pride Corp., 245 S.W.3d 75, 81 (Tex. App. – Texarkana 2008, no pet.). a. Existence of Valid Contract 14. Plaintiff has submitted into evidence the Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty that were agreed to and executed by Champ Logistics and Saenz. See Exhibit 1-A. The Agreement is a valid contract between Plaintiff and Champ Logistics and the Unconditional Guaranty is a valid contract between Plaintiff and Saenz. b. Performance by Plaintiff 15. Under the terms of the Agreement, Plaintiff’s predecessor agreed to finance Champ Logistics’ purchase of the Equipment. See Exhibit 1-A. Performance was complete when it did Page 5 of 9 in fact provide financing and pay the third-party vendor for the Equipment. See Pealor Aff. at ¶5. c. Breach by the Defendants 16. Champ Logistics agreed to make timely payments until the debt was paid in full. See Exhibit 1-A. Under the Unconditional Guaranty, Saenz unconditionally guaranteed all of Champ Logistics’ payment obligations to Plaintiff due under the Agreement. Id. Despite its agreement to make payments, Champ Logistics has failed to make the required payments, which is a clear breach of the Agreement. See Pealor Aff. at ¶6; Exhibit 1-A; Exhibit 1-B. Similarly, Saenz has failed to make the required payments on Champ Logistics’ behalf, which is a clear breach of the Unconditional Guaranty. Id. Under Texas law, enforcement of the Unconditional Guaranty against Saenz is premised solely on Champ Logistics’ default; Plaintiff has no duty to first seek payment from Champ Logistics. Corona, 245 S.W.3d at 81. Further, Saenz agreed that Plaintiff had no such duty when he executed the Unconditional Guaranty. See Exhibit 1-A. d. Damages Sustained by Plaintiff 17. Plaintiff is the owner and holder of the Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty. See Pealor Aff. at ¶6. After taking into account the amounts owed to Plaintiff under the Agreement, fees and charges, and applying all credits and offsets, Champ Logistics owes an outstanding balance of $10,725.33, exclusive of attorneys’ fees, interest, and court costs. Id. at ¶7. As unconditional guarantor of all amounts not paid by Champ Logistics, Saenz is responsible for the same balance. Id. Plaintiff has submitted evidence that Champ Logistics contracted for default interest of 18% per annum. See Exhibit 1-A. Saenz similarly contracted for such interest through execution of the Unconditional Guaranty. Id. Page 6 of 9 18. Because Plaintiff has shown that: 1) Champ Logistics and Saenz executed the Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty; 2) Plaintiff is the owner and holder of the Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty, 3) Plaintiff and its predecessor performed according to its obligations under the Agreement; 4) The condition upon which liability is based occurred when the Agreement went into default for non-payment; and 5) Champ Logistics and Saenz breached the Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty when they failed or refused to perform according to their promises therein, it is clear no genuine issue of material fact exists as to Champ Logistics and Saenz’s breach of and liability under the Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty. Because Plaintiff has shown that, after applying all just credits and offsets, an outstanding balance of $10,725.33 remains on the Agreement as a result of the defendants’ breach, it is clear that no genuine issue of material fact exists as to Champ Logistics and Saenz’s liability for Plaintiff’s actual damages of $10,725.33. Plaintiff is therefore entitled to summary judgment against Champ Logistics and Saenz on its cause of action for breach of contract. II. Plaintiff’s Attorneys’ Fees 19. Under the terms of the Agreement, Champ Logistics agreed to pay Plaintiff’s attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in enforcing its rights under the Agreement. See Exhibit 1-A, section “Default and Remedies”. Likewise, Champ Logistics agreed to pay Plaintiff’s attorney fees and costs incurred in enforcing the Unconditional Guaranty. Id. Plaintiff has submitted summary judgment evidence that it retained counsel to enforce its rights under the Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty via the above-captioned action. See Pealor Aff. at ¶8. According to the Affidavit for Attorney Fees attached hereto as Exhibit 3, Plaintiff has incurred reasonable and necessary attorneys’ fees and court costs in the amount of $4,482.50. Accordingly, should the Page 7 of 9 Court rule that Plaintiff is entitled to summary judgment in the present action, Plaintiff requests that it also be awarded its reasonable and necessary attorneys’ fees and costs. III. Foreclosure of Security Interest and Possession of the Equipment 20. Plaintiff has a security interest in the Equipment. See Exhibit 1-A. Champ Logistics has defaulted in its obligations under the Agreement by failing to make the required payments. Upon default, Plaintiff is permitted to take possession of the Equipment. Accordingly, should this Court rule that Plaintiff is entitled to summary judgment against Champ Logistics in the present action, Plaintiff requests that the Court’s order foreclose Plaintiff’s security interest and order Champ Logistics or any other person in possession of the Equipment to surrender the Equipment to Plaintiff. VII. CONCLUSION By reason of the evidence and authorities set forth above, Plaintiff has demonstrated that no genuine issues of material fact exist as to its breach of contract claims against Defendants Champ Logistics and Saenz. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff hereby requests that the Court render judgment as follows: 1. That Plaintiff’s Traditional Motion for Summary Judgment be granted in its entirety; 2. That the Court adjudge Defendants Champ Logistics and Saenz jointly and severally liable to pay to Plaintiff the entire amount due under the Agreement, including pre- and post-judgment interest; 3. That Plaintiff be awarded its reasonable and necessary attorneys’ fees and costs against Defendants Champ Logistics and Saenz; 4. That the Court award possession of the Equipment to Plaintiff; 5. That Plaintiff be granted all such other and further relief, in law or in equity, to which it may be justly entitled. Page 8 of 9 Respectfully submitted, By: /s/ Ashley B. Smith JARED A.

Prior to this suit, Champ Logistics, LLC (“Champ Logistics”) entered into Equipment Finance Agreement No. 1207818.301 (the “Agreement”) with Financial Pacific Leasing, Inc. (“Financial Pacific”). A true and correct copy of the Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 1-A. 4. In conjunction with the Agreement, defendant Jorge A. Saenz aka Jorge Saenz (“Saenz”) executed a Personal Guaranty, pursuant to which she unconditionally guaranteed payment and Page 1 of 2 performance of all obligations of Champ Logistics due under the Agreement (the “Unconditional Guaranty”). The Unconditional Guaranty is included within the first page of the Agreement. 5.

The Agreement and Unconditional Guaranty continue to be owned and held by Plaintiff. 8.

Said outstanding balance is calculated as follows: Amount due under Agreement: $34,637.76 Remainder Due Per Addendum Dated May 31, 2019: $8,416.07 Post-Addendum Payments Made: ($ 975.00) Default Interest (18%, 8/1/19-1/20/22): $3,284.26 TOTAL: $10,725.33 9.
