Alton A. Parker, Petitioner v. Employers Mutual Liability Insurance Company of Wisconsin, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Civil Appeals, holding that the plaintiff failed to present evidence of a reasonable medical probability that his cancer was caused by occupational radiation exposure, and therefore the issue of causation should not have been submitted to the jury. A dissent argued the opposite, emphasizing the plaintiff's extensive exposure and the sufficiency of the evidence.
