Charles Kenneth Campbell, Petitioner v. Northwestern National Life Insurance Company, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the trial court’s take‑nothing judgment and the Court of Civil Appeals’ affirmation, holding that the jury’s finding of an option contract was supported by evidence and that Campbell may recover in quantum meruit for the reasonable value of his remodeling services despite the option’s unenforceability under the Statute of Frauds. The case was remanded for further determination of factual‑insufficiency points.
