Description
This is a suit brought by petitioners as plaintiffs in a District Court of Dallas County, Texas, against the respondents, National Title & Abstract Company; Alamo Title Company; and also against Lone Star Gas Company, as defendants. Plaintiffs alleged that on April 1, 1948, they purchased a 2.35 acre tract of land and paid defendants to issue its policy of title insurance in plaintiffs favor guaranteeing to plaintiffs that they were receiving a good and indefeasible title to the land; that plaintiffs paid defendants for these services and received a title insurance policy; that about July 15, 1957, plaintiffs for the first time discovered that Lone Star Gas Company was the owner of a recorded easement executed by former owners of the land in 1915 for installation and maintenance of a sixteen-inch high pressure gas line across the tract of land purchased by plaintiffs and covered by defendants title insurance policy. Plaintiffs alleged that such gas line was buried about four feet under the surface; that such easement prevented plaintiffs title from being a good and indefeasible title; that the condition of the title insurance policy had been breached, and sought damages from defendants.
