Storage & Processors, Inc. and Leonel Guerrero, Petitioners v. Ramon Reyes, Respondent

April 2, 200447 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 405

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that an employer must satisfy the fair notice requirements of the express negligence doctrine and conspicuousness when enrolling employees in a non‑subscriber workers' compensation benefits plan, and therefore affirmed the Court of Appeals' judgment. The Court remanded for further fact‑finding on whether the employee had actual knowledge of the plan's terms.
