R.l. Sherman, Petitioner v. First National Bank in Center, Texas, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals and reinstated the trial court's judgment for Sherman, holding that there was sufficient evidence that the real estate note had been settled, thus the jury's verdict of wrongful foreclosure stands. The Court clarified that on a "no evidence" issue an appellate court may consider only evidence supporting the jury's finding and must disregard contrary evidence.
