Furr’s Supermarkets, Inc., Petitioner v. Marthana Bethune, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals, holding that emotional fragility and inability to pay are not "good cause" under Rule 141 to deviate from Rule 131’s mandate that the prevailing party recover costs. The Court also affirmed that a partial reporter's record is presumed to be the entire record for review of the cost issue.
