622 Sofi Lakes, LP
Harris County cause 2026-70357 is the Sofi Lakes lawsuit: 622 Sofi Lakes, LP, GO-M Realty LLC, and Damac Investments LLC v. Jonathan Garcia, with counterclaims and third-party claims against Sophia Filfil and others.
Jonathan Garcia and Sophia Filfil are parties in two pending Texas cases. In Harris County cause 2026-70357, the 515th District Court, 622 Sofi Lakes, LP, GO-M Realty LLC, and Damac Investments LLC sued Garcia, and Garcia filed counterclaims and third-party claims. In Chambers County cause 26DCV0903, Garcia sued Ms. Filfil, Providence Title Company, and Damac Investments, LLC; that court later signed a transfer order and an abatement order, and the dispute is proceeding in Harris County. This site sets out court filings and dated exhibits. Statements by Garcia are allegations.
