R. G. Ford, Doing Business as R. G. Ford Butane Equipment Company v. J. B. Carpenter

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court affirmed the trial court's judgment and reversed the Court of Civil Appeals. It held that the plaintiff waived any error by not moving for a mistrial when defense counsel improperly asked about insurance, that the casual reference to insurance during deliberations and the jurors' discussion of damages did not constitute reversible jury misconduct, and that the trial court properly reconciled apparent conflicts in the jury's special‑issue findings.
