Discover Bank brings breach of contract suit

Discover Bank has brought a breach of contract suit against Beaumont local Dwight Johnson Jr. 

The suit was filed Oct. 19 in Jefferson County District Court.

According to the lawsuit, the parties entered into a card member agreement, in which Discover made cash advances to Johnson.

“Defendant accepted each advance and under the agreement became bound to pay plaintiff the amounts of such advances, plus additional charges under the agreement,” the suit states.

“Defendant has failed to repay all of the advances made under the agreement.”

The current balance due is $1,852.40, the suit states.

The suit accuses Johnson of breaching his contract.

Discover is suing for actual damages, court costs and interest.

Taylor attorney Joseph O’Bell of Zwicker & Associates represents the plaintiff.

Judge Milton Shuffield, 136th District Court, is assigned to the case.
