, the Texas Supreme Court and this Court have already determined parties may shorten the time provided in section 4.406(f). See Calleja-Ahedo, 569 S.W.3d at 113; Martin, 29 S.W.3d at 89; see Horton v. JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., No. 05-16-00472-CV, 2018 WL 494776, at *3-5 (Tex. App.-Dallas Jan. 22, 2018, no pet.). We reject these arguments out of hand.
Although when both no-evidence and traditional summary judgment motions are filed we typically address the no-evidence motion first, see Ford Motor Co. v. Ridgway, 135 S.W.3d 598, 600 (Tex. 2004), here we will review the propriety of granting the traditional summary judgment first because it is dispositive of CMCD's claims. See Horton v. JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., No. 05-16-00472-CV, 2018 WL 494776, at *2 (Tex. App.-Dallas Jan. 22, 2018, no pet.) (mem. op.)
We note, however, JP Morgan Chase prevailed in Horton's case against the bank which then dismissed Stovall. See Horton v. JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., No. 05-16-00472-CV, 2018 WL 494776 (Tex. App.—Dallas Jan. 22, 2018, no pet.). We affirmed the summary judgment.
