Doris McKinney, Petitioner v. National Union Fire Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Appeals' judgment, holding that the petitioner's objection to an undisclosed fact witness was sufficiently specific and that the trial court's admission of the witness's cumulative testimony did not constitute reversible error. The Court also reiterated the procedural burden on a party seeking to exclude discovery to request a hearing. Justice Ray, in a concurring opinion, agreed with the result but emphasized that the Peeples rule should be applied strictly as written.
