Venice E. Hart, Petitioner v. I.l. Van Zandt, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the Court of Civil Appeals and remanded for a new trial, holding that the trial court erred in granting a peremptory instruction because the record contained sufficient expert evidence to raise genuine issues of negligence and proximate cause that must be decided by a jury. The Court also affirmed the admissibility of osteopathic testimony and the error in excluding Dr. Scott's deposition.
