Landmark Organization10/13/2005
2350, at *25 (Tex. App.-San Antonio Mar. 30, 2005, no pet.) (designated for publication) (holding trial court did not err in awarding prejudgment interest to contractor despite owner's claim of a good faith dispute). Therefore, this statute does not render the trial court's judgment erroneous, and we conclude that the trial court's determination of the dates from which the interest was to be calculated does not constitute an abuse of discretion.
Landmark's second issue is overruled.
Postjudgment Interest
By its third issue, Landmark alleges that the trial court erred in awarding postjudgment interest in the amount of twelve percent per annum. Texas common law allows prejudgment interest to accrue at the same rate as postjudgment interest on damages awarded for breach of contract. Kenneco Energy, 962 S.W.2d at 532. Having determined that the twelve percent rate applied to the prejudgment interest was correct, we accordingly conclude that this rate could also be properly applied to the postjudgment accrual of interest. Landmark's third issue is therefore overruled.
Conclusion
The judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
