Anthony Paul Cropper, Petitioner v. Caterpillar Tractor Company, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that courts of appeals may review a jury's failure to find on a factual issue under the great weight and preponderance of the evidence standard and that such review does not violate the constitutional right to a jury trial; it reversed the Court of Appeals and remanded for further consideration. Justice Robertson dissented, arguing that appellate review of non‑findings infringes the jury right.
