Pablo Tello appealed a summary judgment granted in favor of Bank One, N.A. and Banc One Acceptance Corp. Tello had entered a vehicle lease agreement which was later assigned to the Bank One entities. After Tello allegedly defaulted on payments, Bank One sued for breach of contract. Tello counterclaimed for DTPA violations, common-law fraud, and breach of contract, asserting he was fraudulently induced into the lease by a salesperson due to his inability to read English. The trial court granted summary judgment for the Bank, awarding damages and attorney's fees. The Court of Appeals affirmed the decision, finding Tello had waived most of his appellate issues due to inadequate briefing and failure to properly present them in the trial court.
