Description

This appeal arises out of an action to collect on a promissory note. Defendant, Orion Industries, Ltd., argues that the trial court erred in entering summary judgment for plaintiff, Boyles Brothers Drilling Company, and in dismissing Orion's counterclaim for reformation of the indorsement. The trial court ruled that, because the written indorsement did not specify it was to be "without recourse" and any alleged disclaimer of Orion's liability could not be proved by parol evidence, there existed no genuine issues of fact concerning Orion's liability, thus, Boyles was entitled to judgment as a matter of law. We conclude that the trial court erred in applying the parol evidence rule to the circumstances here, and therefore, we reverse.
