Texas Supreme Court

Rosa Rodriguez, Petitioner v. Service Lloyds Insurance Company, Respondent

September 9, 1999997 S.W.2d 248

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the proper standard of review for a workers' compensation impairment rating's finality under Rule 130.5(e) is modified de novo and that the 90‑day Rule contains no exceptions; it reversed the Court of Appeals and remanded for further proceedings. Justice Phillips, in a concurring opinion, disagreed with the majority's view of the rule's scope and would remand for both procedural and substantive challenges.
