Texas Supreme Court

Continental Casualty Company, Petitioner v. Jesus Huizar, Respondents

November 25, 198731 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 83

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that Continental Casualty's right to appeal the judgment against its insured was waived by its voluntary payment of the policy limits, rendering the appeal moot and the cause dismissed. The Court noted it need not decide the insurer's standing, and a dissent argued for standing under virtual representation.
