Judwin Properties, Inc. v. Velsicol Chemical Corp.

RICKHOFF, Justice.

This is an appeal from a summary judgment rendered in favor of Yelsicol Chemical Corporation, a pesticide manufacturer (“Vel-sicol”), and Columbia Management Services, Inc. d/b/a CMS Pest Control, Inc., an exterminating company (“CMS”). In four points of error, appellants challenge both grounds asserted in the summary judgment motion contending: (1) the discovery rule precludes their claims from being barred by limitations; and (2) neither res judicata nor collateral estoppel bars their claims. We reverse the trial court’s judgment.
