PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
TO THE HONORABLE JUDGE OF SAID COURT:
Plaintiff, U.S. Bank National Association ("Plaintiff') files this Plaintiff’s
Motion for Summary Judgment against Defendant, ENEDINA H BARRERA
("Defendant") pursuant to Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 166a(c), and in
support thereof respectfully shows the Court as follows:
I. STATEMENT OF FACTS
Defendant subsequently defaulted on the balance in the Account, in
violation of the Account Agreement.
Plaintiff’s Account Listing reflects the sequence of transactions and
resulting balance to the Account and as of December 12, 2023, the balance of
the Account, after all just and lawful offsets, was the sum of $21,623.31. A
true and correct copy of the Account Listing is attached hereto as a part of
Plaintiff’s business record affidavit, Exhibit "A," and incorporated herein for all

intents and purposes.
II. PROCEDURAL HISTORY
On July 5, 2022 Plaintiff filed its original Petition asserting claims
including breach of contract and account stated against Defendant.
Defendant filed their Answer on or about August 26, 2022.
III. GROUNDS FOR THE MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
Plaintiff moves for summary judgment under Rule 166a(c) of the Texas
Rules of Civil Procedure Rule.
Plaintiff is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. The business record
affidavit, attached herein, contains the Account Agreement and ledger of this
account, fully demonstrating the payment history and breach of contract.
Plaintiff has not received payment for this remaining balance. The Defendant
received the benefit of the account, but has failed to pay the Plaintiff
accordingly.
Based on the allowed evidence set forth in Rule 166a(f), the evidence
attached hereto can lead reasonable minds but one conclusion, and that
conclusion is that the Plaintiff is entitled to judgment against the Defendant.
The Defendant has not produced any evidence to demonstrate that this
account was paid in full. To avoid summary judgment, the Defendant must go
beyond the bare denial in the Answer and bring forth evidence to rebut
Plaintiff’s evidence. Defendant cannot meet this burden as Plaintiff’s affidavit
demonstrates that there remains a balance due and Defendant has not

asserted any written Answer in this matter.
Therefore, since there are no issues of material fact, reasonable minds
may come to only one conclusion: Defendant incurred charges on the
account and failed to pay the balance owing. Therefore, the Plaintiff is
entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
VI. CONCLUSION
As there are no genuine issues of material fact related to Plaintiff’s
allegations regarding the Account, Plaintiff requests that this Honorable Court
grant summary judgment in its favor in the principal amount of $21,623.31, its
costs incurred herein, and any further relief this Court deems just and
equitable.
Respectfully submitted,
