Nelson v. SCI Texas Funeral Services, Inc.

OPINION

JOHN M. BAILEY, JUSTICE

Cody Nelson appeals the trial court’s final judgment that granted SCI Texas Funeral Services, Inc.’s motion for summary judgment on a no-evidence ground and a traditional ground raised by SCI. As per the terms of the final judgment, these grounds were dispositive of Nelson’s suit because they negated his claims for mental anguish damages, the only damages he sought. In one issue on appeal, Nelson contends that the trial court erred when it granted SCI’s motion for summary judgment on his claims seeking mental anguish damages. -We reverse and remand.
