Lew G. Larson, Petitioners v. Cactus Utility Company, Respondents

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals' affirmation of a trial‑court remittitur, holding that trial‑court remittitur orders must be reviewed for factual sufficiency rather than abuse of discretion, and that Gentry waived his objection to the Stock Purchase Agreement; the case was remanded for reconsideration under the correct standard. Justice Hill dissented, arguing that the majority improperly overruled Flanigan and misapplied Pope.
