Parties Rest in Energy Transfer’s $432.7M Breach Suit

In a tag-team closing argument Monday afternoon, two attorneys representing a client facing a $432.7 million damages request by Energy Transfer told Business Court Judge Grant Dorfman the amount being sought is both unfounded and a drastic overreach. 

The closing arguments were delivered in a second-floor conference room at the Embassy Suites in downtown Houston, where testimony in the bench trial began March 30. The Business Court was created by lawmakers in 2023 and touted as a sophisticated venue for quickly and predictably adjudicating complex business disputes.
