   Meanwhile, Jorge Casimiro and Thomas Thibodeau, who ran the company responsible for Hyde Park, blamed most of the mess on a subcontractor, saying roofs had been improperly installed, according to legal documents filed when the two sued the roofer.
   ...
   Casimiro, former CEO of Stature, said his company made plenty of repairs, yet the problems kept mushrooming and homeowners kept complaining, according to court records. "And I do remember that we went out there and we tried to fix things. And I believe that we fixed them at that time," he said in a deposition.
   
   Casimiro and Thibodeau did not respond to repeated requests for interviews.
   ...
   Casimiro and Thibodeau continued to develop property under myriad names.
   ...
   One company Casimiro ran botched the Memorial Villages police station that serves three small towns just west of Loop 610, public records show. In 2002, Stature Commercial Construction was fired from the $3.2 million project.
   ...
   For years, the company steadily pumped out more than 50 homes a year in the burgeoning Houston market, according to depositions given by Casimiro.
   
   But Casimiro has claimed his company was a casualty of the lawsuits and subcontractors' substandard work. Casimiro, a former member of the Harris County Housing Authority, has been building in Houston for years - first fencing, then affordable homes and then upscale inside-the-loop developments.
   ...
   Thibodeau oversaw construction; Casimiro was the business manager who oversaw warranty matters, according to depositions.
   ...
   Casimiro used Norman Chapa, his brother-in-law, as his go-to guy for dealing directly with homeowners' warranty issues.
   ...
   In 2001, the year Stature Construction became inactive, Casimiro and Thibodeau founded other companies, including Tremont Homes.
