Description
Appellee Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA) filed suit in the district court of Travis County seeking a judgment declaring the rights of LCRA and appellant Capitol Rod and Gun Club (CRGC) in and to a part of a 253.69-acre tract of land located between the 670-foot and 715-foot contour line above Lake Travis. LCRA derives its claim to the land from a deed to it by Travis Land and Cattle Company (TLCC), while CRGC derives its claim from an easement instrument from LCRA to TLCC, both instruments being dated December 14, 1939. The other appellants intervened in the suit in alignment with CRGC. LCRA claims ownership in fee simple subject to certain specific rights in appellants by virtue of the said easement. Appellants, to the contrary, claim entitlement to the exclusive use and occupancy to the property in question subject only to LCRAs right to inundate the land in connection with its operation of Mansfield Dam. The district court rendered summary judgment favorable to LCRA declaring the rights of the parties and granting injunctive relief. This Court will affirm the summary judgment.
