Houston probate lawyer Robert “Keith” Morris II seeks a declaratory judgment to void a promissory note related to his ex-wife’s employment agreement at his firm. He alleges the $6 million note is “unconscionable” and obtained when his former wife, Erin E. Jones, was threatening him.
“There were procedural abuses by Erin in connection with the drafting and execution of the note, such as an unfair bargaining position between the parties at the time the note was signed and threats by Erin of personal and professional embarrassment,” Morris alleges in a petition filed Sept. 22 in state district court in Harris County.
