Sterling Price Boothe, Iii, Petitioner v. Dieter Erich Hausler, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals and remanded for a new trial because the trial court improperly admitted the testimony of Charlene Hausler without a showing of good cause for the defendant's failure to supplement his interrogatory answers. The Court held that the error was not harmless as the testimony was material to the core issue of whether the defendant assaulted the plaintiff.
