Metroplexcore, L.L.C. v. Perrin, No. 12-20466 (5th Cir. 2014)
Annotate this CaseThis appeal arose from a contracting dispute between MetroplexCore and Parsons, which contracted with the county to design, build, and operate a transit system. The court agreed that the summary judgment evidence did not present any genuine issue of material fact as to MetroplexCore's joint venture and quantum meruit claims, and MetroplexCore did not challenge the dismissal of its fraudulent misrepresentation claim on appeal. However, because the district court impermissibly resolved certain disputed questions of fact at the summary judgment stage, and because those facts, taken in a light most favorable to MetroplexCore would give rise to a claim to relief for promissory estoppel, the court affirmed in part and reversed in part.
