Terry W. Yates and his firm, Terry W. Yates PC, have been fighting with Dynegy Inc. for seven years, trying to collect attorney fees they allege the Houston-based energy company owes them for representing one of its former executives in a federal criminal case. According to a July 13 order by the Texas Supreme Court, Yates and his firm will have to wait even longer for the case to be resolved.

The high court abated, as of July 6, the petition for review in Dynegy Inc. v. Terry W. Yates and Terry W. Yates PC. The petition for review is Dynegy’s appeal of a decision from San Antonio’s 4th Court of Appeals, which awarded Yates and his firm actual damages of $448,556 in attorney fees.
