Sakowitz, Inc., Petitioner v. Diane Steck, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals and affirmed the trial court’s grant of summary judgment for Sakowitz, holding that no genuine issue of material fact existed as to Sakowitz’s privilege to interfere with Steck’s employment. Accordingly, Steck’s tortious interference claim fails because Sakowitz had shown legal justification as a matter of law.
