Texas Supreme Court

Dr. Ruth Jackson, Petitioner v. Fontaine’s Clinics, Inc., Respondent

July 11, 197316 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 421

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the court of civil appeals and remanded the case, holding that the special issue on actual damages was fatally defective, that hearsay testimony and documentary exhibits were improperly admitted, that proximate‑cause matters should have been presented as jury instructions, and that the appellate court lacked jurisdiction to reform judgments against non‑appealing co‑defendants, leaving those judgments undisturbed.
