§
Defendant. § JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
PLAINTIFFS’ OPPOSED MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE
SECOND AMENDED PLEADING
Plaintiff Richard Villnave, asks the Court for leave to file the attached Plaintiffs’ Second
Amended Petition to a join a related party to the Defendant and assert negligence per se.
I. SUMMARY
Plaintiff sued Defendant Encore Dredging Partners, LLC, for negligence and gross
negligence arising out injuries sustained from an improperly lit dredge. Plaintiffs now seek to
properly join an affiliated defendant -- Defendant Inland Dredging Company, LLC. This entity is
a proper party despite Encore Dredging Partners, LLC's representation that the business was no
longer operating, and that Encore Dredging Partners, LLC was the proper party. For the following
reasons, Plaintiffs seek to amend their petition an add negligence per se claims and join Inland
Dredging Company LLC:
1. No surprise.
2. No prejudice.
3. No removal from any expedited process.
1
II. BACKGROUND
On or about January 14, 2022, Mr. Villnave and Mr. Stewart were travelling in West
Galveston Bay aboard Plaintiff Villnave’s 21-foot custom duck boat, going a reasonable speed
with LED lights in the water. Mr. Villnave thought he was traveling safely in open waters, the only
thing visible were boat lights and he could see some 300 yards aways. Without warning, the vessel
collided with a solid structure in the water, coming to a jolting halt. This structure, which was later
identified as dredging pipes of the M/V Ranger that is owned by Encore and operated by Inland
Dredging Company, LLC, were not visible at the time of the allision as it was nighttime, the pipes
themselves were a dark color, there were no visible markers, and there was no lighting to warn
those traveling in the West Galveston Bay. The sudden allision with the Encore Defendant’s M/V
Ranger’s pipes as it was dredging caused Mr. Villnave and Mr. Stewart to be thrown around
violently aboard the vessel. Plaintiffs suffer from a number of resulting injuries to their neck and
back. The incident was reported to the United States Coast Guard, game warden, and to the office
of safety of the M/V Ranger where Mr. Villnave observed uninstalled lights.
By reason of the occurrences made the basis of this action, including the conduct on the part
of the Defendants, Plaintiffs sustained severe bodily injuries. Plaintiffs have suffered physical pain
and mental anguish and, in reasonable medical probability, will continue to do so for the balance of
their natural lives.
Plaintiffs now seek leave to file their Second Amended Petition, attached to this motion
as Exhibit A, to join a necessary party. Defendant Encore disclosure that Encore Dredging
Partners, LLC is the correct name defendant and there were no additional parties. This was false. See
Exhibit B. Inland Dredging Company, LLC is the contracting party and operator of the dredge on
January 14, 2022. See Exhibit C.
2
The purpose of Plaintiffs’ amendment is to join a new party and assert negligence per
se.
This case is set for trial on March 27, 2023. The Parties filed a joint and agreed Motion
for Continuance on January 5, 2023, as the parties agreed to work together to mediate the case.
The mediation was unsuccessful.
III. ARGUMENT & AUTHORITIES
A court should grant leave to amend a pleading after the filing deadline unless (1) the
opposing party presents evidence of surprise, (2) the opposing party establishes the amendment is
prejudicial on its face, or (3) the amendment removes the suit from the expedited-actions process
in Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 169 and the party presenting the amendment does not show that
good cause for filing the amendment outweighs any prejudice to the opposing party. See Tex. R.
Civ. P. 63, 169(c)(2); see also Greenhalgh v. Serv. Lloyds Ins. Co., 787 S.W.2d 938, 939 (Tex.
1990) (burden to show surprise or prejudice is on party opposing amendment).
A. Defendants cannot show surprise.
No court has defined “surprise” for purposes of Rule 63, but courts have considered certain
factors when determining whether a party opposing an amendment was surprised. To establish
surprise, the opposing party should address these factors, which include (1) how long the suit has
been pending before the amendment was filed, (2) how soon before trial the amendment was made,
and (3) whether the amendment presents a new claim. Dunnagan v. Watson, 204 S.W.3d 30, 38
(Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2006, pet. denied); see Stevenson v. Koutzarov, 795 S.W.2d 313, 321
(Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 1990, writ denied). If the amendment presents a new claim, the
opposing party should also address whether the claim is based on recently discovered matters and
indicate whether the opposing party is prepared to try the new claim. See Dunnagan, 204 S.W.3d
at 38; Stevenson, 795 S.W.2d at 321.
3
The Court should grant leave to file the amended pleading because Defendant cannot claim
to be surprised by the amendment. Plaintiffs are filing this amended pleading as soon as possible.
Defendant Encore represented that there were no additional parties, and that Encore was the proper
party. Discovery has revealed this was inaccurate and Inland Dredging is a proper and necessary
party.
B. Defendants cannot show prejudice.
To establish prejudice on the face of an amendment, the opposing party should show that
the amendment (1) asserts a new substantive matter that reshapes the nature of the suit, (2) could
not have been anticipated by the opposing party, and (3) will detrimentally affect the opposing
party’s ability to present its case. Hardin v. Hardin, 597 S.W.2d 347, 349-50 (Tex. 1980); Halmos
v. Bombardier Aerospace Corp., 314 S.W.3d 606, 623 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2010, no pet.).
The Court should grant leave to file the amended pleading because Defendants cannot
claim to be prejudiced by the amendment. Firstly, this amendment does not assert a new
substantive matter that reshapes the nature of the suit. Plaintiffs are merely adding a new related
party and negligence per se. Secondly, the opposing parties could easily anticipate the joinder of
these new parties because the parties are related. Thirdly and lastly, the joinder of these anticipated
parties will not detrimentally affect the opposing party’s ability to present its case.
C. Suit is not an expedited action.
The Court should grant leave to file the amended pleading because this suit is not an
expedited action under Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 169. This lawsuit is governed by a Level 3
discovery control plan pursuant to the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure.
CONCLUSION
Plaintiffs file this Motion for Leave to File Amended Pleading to join a new party to the
suit. Plaintiffs file this Motion not for delay but so that justice may be done. The opposing parties
4
will not be prejudiced or surprised by this amended pleading as both parties have moved for a
continuance and discovery is in the early stages.
PRAYER
For these reasons, Plaintiffs ask the Court to grant leave to file the amended pleading.

JURISDICTION AND VENUE
This Court has subject matter jurisdiction over this cause of action because it involves an
amount in excess of the minimum jurisdictional limits of this court. This case is not removable
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1441(b).
This Court has personal jurisdiction over Defendant because Defendant Encore is
headquartered in Texas, does business in Texas and the causes of action herein arose from
Defendant’s activities in this state.
Venue is proper in this matter pursuant to the Texas Civil Practices and Remedies Code §
15.002. Venue is proper in Galveston County, Texas under TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE
§15.002(a)(1) and (2) because the Defendant’s primary place of business is in Galveston County,
Texas and the acts complained of herein occurred in Galveston County, Texas.
FACTUAL BACKGROUND
On or about January 14, 2022, Mr. Villnave and Mr. Stewart were travelling in West
Galveston Bay aboard Plaintiff Villnave’s 21-foot custom duck boat, going a reasonable speed
with LED lights in the water. Mr. Villnave thought he was traveling safely in open waters, the only
thing visible were boat lights and he could see some 300 yards aways. Without warning, his vessel
collided with a solid structure in the water, coming to a jolting halt. This structure, which was later
identified as dredging pipes of the M/V Ranger that is owned by Encore and operated by Inland
Dredging Company, LLC, were not visible at the time of the allision as it was nighttime, the pipes
themselves were a dark color, there were no visible markers, and there was no lighting to warn
those traveling in the West Galveston Bay. The sudden allision with the Encore Defendant’s M/V
Page 2
Ranger’s pipes as it was dredging caused Mr. Villnave and Mr. Stewart to be thrown around
violently aboard the vessel. Plaintiffs suffer from a number of resulting injuries to their neck and
back. The incident was reported to the United States Coast Guard, game warden, and to the office
of safety of the M/V Ranger where Mr. Villnave observed uninstalled lights.
By reason of the occurrences made the basis of this action, including the conduct on the part
of the Defendants, Plaintiffs sustained severe bodily injuries. Plaintiffs have suffered physical pain
and mental anguish and, in reasonable medical probability, will continue to do so for the balance of
their natural lives.
As a result of the foregoing injuries, Plaintiffs have suffered a loss of wages in the past and
a loss of or reduction in the capacity to work and earn money in the future and, in reasonable
probability, their earning capacities have been impaired permanently.
Moreover, Plaintiffs have incurred reasonable and necessary medical expenses in the past
and, in reasonable probability will incur reasonable medical expenses in the future.
Additionally, as a result of the injuries sustained in this occurrence, Plaintiffs suffered in
the past and will, in reasonable medical probability, continue to suffer permanent physical
impairment.
Pleading further, in the alternative, if it is shown that Plaintiffs were suffering from some
pre-existing injury, disease, and/or condition, then such was aggravated and/or exacerbated as a
proximate result of the occurrence made the basis of this lawsuit.
Plaintiffs are physically impaired as a result of injuries sustained. As a consequence, they
have lost the ability to perform household services and, in reasonable probability, this loss is
permanent
NEGLIGENCE BY ALL DEFENDANTS
Defendants were negligent in not properly marking and/or illuminating the dredge pipes
Page 3
which created a hazard. Defendants failed to ensure the condition of its dredge pipes were safe for
those traveling in the West Galveston Bay through measures including, but not limited to proper
marking and illumination of the pipes. Defendants had a duty to those traveling in the West
Galveston Bay and breached that duty through the hazard they created.
NEGLIGENCE PER SE
Defendants’ conduct, individually or collectively, was negligence per se because of a
breach of duty imposed by statute. This breach caused Plaintiffs’ injuries. Specifically, there was
a breach of duties imposed by statutes and state law, including, but not limited to, one or more of
the following:
• This regulation requires the owner of an obstruction to “mark it immediately with a
buoy or beacon during the day or a light at night.” 33 C.F.R. § 64.11(a).
• “A vessel engaged in dredging or underwater operations, when restricted in her ability
to maneuver, shall exhibit the lights and shapes prescribed in paragraphs (b)(i), (ii),
and (iii) of this Rule.” 33 C.F.R. § 83.27(d).
• Notice to Mariners. 33 C.F.R. 72.01.
• Obstructions existing on or in the navigable waters . . . .”See 33 C.F.R. § 64.03(a)(3);
See Higman Towing Co. v. Dredge Tom James, 637 F. Supp. 925, 929 (E.D. Tex.
1986).
Plaintiffs are within the class of individuals intended to be protected by the statute. These
statutes are ones for which tort liability may be imposed. Defendants’ breach of the statutory duties
proximately caused Plaintiffs’ injuries
Defendants’ negligence as alleged above was the proximate cause of the injuries caused by
the obstructed dredge pipe and causing injuries to the Plaintiffs.
GROSS NEGLIGENCE
Plaintiffs repeat and re-allege the allegations of the preceding paragraphs as though fully set
Page 4
forth herein.
Defendant’s conduct was willful, reckless, wanton, and/or malicious. At a minimum,
Defendants’ acts and omissions, when viewed objectively, involved an extreme degree of risk,
considering the probability and magnitude of the potential harm. And, due to their subjective
awareness of the extreme risk, Defendants exhibited a conscious indifference to the rights, safety
or welfare of others. Plaintiffs thus seek exemplary damages, along with all other damages allowed
by applicable law.
DAMAGES
By reason of the occurrences made the basis of this action, including the conduct on part of
the Defendants, Plaintiffs sustained severe bodily injuries. Plaintiffs have incurred medical bills for
past treatment, and will need treatment into the future as a result of the injuries. Due to the
occurrences, Plaintiffs have suffered physical pain and mental anguish, and in reasonable medical
probability, will continue to do so for the balance of their natural life.
Pleading further, in the alternative, if it is shown that Plaintiffs were suffering from some pre-
existing injury, disease, and/or condition, then such was aggravated and/or exacerbated as a proximate
result of the occurrence made the basis of this lawsuit.
PRESERVATION OF EVIDENCE
Plaintiffs hereby requests and demand that Defendants preserve and maintain all evidence
pertaining to any claim or defense related to the incident made the basis of this lawsuit or the
damages resulting therefrom, including statements, photographs, videotapes, audiotapes,
surveillance or security tapes, business or medical records, incident reports, bills, telephone call
slips or records, correspondence, facsimiles, e-mail, voicemail, text messages, any evidence
involving the incident in question, and any electronic image or information related to the
referenced incident or damages. Failure to maintain such items will constitute “spoliation” of the
Page 5
evidence.
REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL
Plaintiffs request a trial by jury.
CONCLUSION AND PRAYER
Plaintiffs demand judgment in their favor against Defendants, including: compensatory
damages to include those for past and future economic loss; past and future mental anguish; past
and future pain and suffering; past and future impairment and disfigurement; and past and future
medical expenses. Plaintiffs also seek costs of suit, as well as any further relief as this Court deems
just and proper.
For these reasons, Plaintiffs asks that Defendants be cited to appear and answer this suit.
Plaintiff ask that this case be set for trial without delay, and that Plaintiff recover judgment from
Defendants for damages in such an amount that the evidence may show and the trier of fact may
determine to be proper.
WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Plaintiff prays for judgment against
Defendants in the amount of SIX MILLION DOLLARS ($6,000,000.00), plus pre- and post-
judgment interest at the legal rate, for all costs of court, and all such other and further relief, at law
and in equity, to which they may be justly entitled.
