Exercise 7
James Pierce approached Terrance Wright of Wright Group Architects- Planners, P.L.L.C. about providing architectural and design services for a proposed eight-story condominium. Wright sent a contract in the form of a two-page letter addressed to "Mr. Jim Pierce, President, GHTM Inc." The letter referred to the parties as "Wright Group" and "Owner." At the bottom was the word "Accepted" and below it, Pierce's signature. Wright Group was not paid for its services, so it sued Pierce personally. Pierce claimed he had signed the contract as agent for Galveston Hidden Treasure Management Inc. Should Pierce be personally liable? [Wright Group Architects-Planners, P.L.L.C. v. Pierce, 343 S.W.3d 196 (Tex. Ct. App.)]
