Universal Services Co. v. Huy Hieng Khaov Ung

in which GONZALEZ, HIGHTOWER, HECHT, CORNYN, ENOCH, and OWEN, Justices, join.

We must determine whether legally sufficient evidence supports the jury’s verdict that petitioner caused the death of respondents’ decedent through gross negligence. The court of appeals found both legally and factually sufficient evidence to support the jury finding of gross negligence. 882 S.W.2d 460. We conclude, however, that the evidence is not legally sufficient to support the finding of gross negligence. We therefore reverse the judgment of the court of appeals and render judgment that respondents take nothing.
