Building contractors, chiefly homebuilders, are using the engineering complaint-discipline process to achieve their financial objectives including encouraging their hired engineering expert witnesses to initiate frivolous claims against those professional engineers who work on behalf of homeowners. According to Mr. C.W. Clark of TBPE’s Enforcement Division, the Board avoids complying with Section 1001.252 General Rules Regarding Complaint Investigation and Disposition paragraphs (l) and (m) concerning frivolous complaints, by refusing to classify ANY complaint filed against an engineer as “frivolous”. Also according to Mr. Clark, the Board, all of whom have been appointed by Governor Rick Perry, has discussed this matter and has formally or informally endorsed the Staff’s actions. The Texas Medical Board has also been stacked by Governor Rick Perry’s cronies and it also engages in unethical practices. That Board has attracted a Travis County District Attorney’s investigation as well as a civil lawsuit. SOURCE: http://engr101.com/?p=38 |

Stuck with LEMON... need Lemon Law for homes
In Texas LULAC has witnessed a disturbing trend in substandard new home construction, which can be attributed to the lack of adequate inspections during construction, lack of effective new home warranty protection, home durability as well as lack of consumer redress for defective new home construction.
The industry-wide use of Binding Mandatory Arbitration (BMA) clauses in new homebuilder contracts and third party warranties further deny home buyers their constitutional rights of holding a builder accountable through the courts.
