July 3, 200952 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 1030

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the evidence was legally insufficient to establish a partnership between Jesse C. Ingram and Louis Deere under the Texas Revised Partnership Act, reversed the Court of Appeals and reinstated the trial court's take‑nothing judgment for Ingram. The Court also affirmed that Ingram preserved his no‑evidence argument despite procedural defaults. Justice Johnson filed a concurring opinion agreeing with the reversal but emphasizing the sufficiency of the jury charge on partnership factors.
