A Texas appellate court, upon interlocutory appeal, affirmed the denial of a motion to compel arbitration in a class-action dispute between roofing contractors and homeowners arising from contracts allegedly violating the Texas Insurance Code, holding that the contractors failed to prove the existence of valid arbitration agreements with class members or any agreement authorizing class arbitration due to deficient, inadmissible evidence and the absence of express class-arbitration provisions.
