No deal for Mansfield pair in mediation with builder
Attorneys for a Mansfield couple who won a $58 million judgment against Houston homebuilder Bob Perry say mediation efforts have proved unsuccessful. Van Shaw and Dan Hagood said Monday that they failed to reach agreement with Perry's attorneys. A Fort Worth judge ordered the mediation to avoid appeals after the verdict this month. Robert and Jane Cull sued Perry Homes in 2000 over problems with their home's foundation. They had won an $800,000 arbitration award, but the Texas Supreme Court overturned that award in 2008.
