Texas Supreme Court

Brown & Root, Incorporated v. Abraham Haddad

May 10, 1944142 Tex. 624

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the highway patrolman's accident report was not a privileged communication and therefore the trial court erred in admitting it in its entirety, though portions could be admitted for impeachment. The Court also affirmed that a general objection to a whole document is overruled when any part is admissible, and it reversed the Court of Civil Appeals, affirming the trial court's judgment.
