Description
Appellee Southwest Stainless, L.P. (Stainless) sued Redland Insurance Company (Redland) on a payment bond Redland provided pursuant to Chapter 2253 of the Texas Government Code to prime contractor S.L. Sibert Company (Sibert) to secure Siberts payment to all subcontractors on a construction project for the City of Fort Worth. Sibert had purchased materials for the project from Stainless but never paid for them. Eventually, Stainless sued both Redland and Sibert; Sibert declared bankruptcy and was dismissed from the suit. Following a bench trial, the trial court entered judgment for Stainless on its claim against Redland on the payment bond. This appeal followed, and the sole issue we address is whether Stainless substantially complied with the notice requirements of Chapter 2253. See TEX. GOVt Code Ann. §Â§ 2253.001-.079 (Vernon 2000 & Supp. 2005). Because we hold that Stainless substantially complied with the notice requirements, we will affirm.
