In its Motion for Rehearing, Petitioners ask the Court to reverse its holding that there was no evidence to legally support a finding of proximate cause needed for the yield sign claim. On this point, the motion should be denied as the Court correctly held that no evidence on proximate cause existed make the claim legally insufficient. The Court correctly found that the only proffered evidence on causation was conjecture from the expert witness that admitted he could not opine on whether the presence of a yield sign made the collision more likely than not to occur.

Fleming Defendants made their second Absolute Anti-Collateral Estoppel Agreement with the court after they lost the Kinney trial. Wilson Plaintiffs sought offensive collateral estoppel on the Kinney judgment, and Fleming Defendants responded with an aggressive absolute anti-collateral estoppel position as follows: In Karnes, which preceded Kinney and Wilson, the federal court had denied class certification of breach of fiduciary duty claims precisely because Plaintiffs had failed to show that common questions predominated over the individualized issues. See Karnes v. Fleming No. H-07-0620, 2008 WL 4528223 (S.D. Tex. July 31, 2008). Among other things, the court held that “vast numbers of individualized issues are raised by the myriad contractual provisions that bear on the substance of, and the forum for litigating, the breach of fiduciary duty claims in this case.” Id. at *8.

See Tex. Lab. Code § 410.021 (emphasis added). The Section refers to the "claim" three times, including to "the respective parties to a workers' compensation claim," apparently contemplating the existence of a pending claim as a predicate to the conference. The section is silent as to the question before us—whether DWC, through a benefit review conference, has jurisdiction to resolve issues anticipated to arise from a potential claim. Silence creates statutory ambiguity. See Chevron, U.S.A., Inc. v. Natural Res. Def. Council, Inc., 467 U.S. 837, 842, 104 S. Ct. 2778, 81 L.

Likewise, as set forth above, there was at least some evidence a to the mixed character value of husband’s retirement funds. Even if the evidence presented in either instance was circumstantial in nature, it still constitutes more than a scintilla for a sufficiency analysis. If the evidence presented in either issue rises above the scintilla standard for legal sufficiency but, in the opinion of the court of appeals, fails to meet the standard for factual sufficiency, the remedy for such error is remand not render.

The determination of whether any type of claim is within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Texas Workers' Compensation Commission depends on whether the claim is based on a claimant's entitlement to benefits. The issue is not whether a particular type of claim, such as a tort or statutory claim, is within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Commission. Rather, the determination of whether any type of claim is within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Commission depends on whether the claim is based on an alleged delay or denial of a workers' compensation benefit.

To do so, TX 1111 obtained an advisory determination from NPS that allowed it to prepare a state Part C for QREs incurred in the rehabilitation of the Texaco building through December 31, 2016. This had the effect of dividing the Texaco building rehabilitation into two projects under the Texas program: the first for work done through December 31, 2016, and the second for work on and after January 1, 2017. Without the approval from NPS and THC, TX 1111 would have been allowed only a single submission of the state Part C upon the completion of the Texaco building rehabilitation in its entirety.

On the calculation of damages 518. The Tribunal has found that Respondent has engaged in several violations of the Treaty. Specifically, Respondent has executed an indirect creeping expropriation of Claimant’s investment and has violated the both the FET and the umbrella clauses. The Tribunal has concluded that there has been certain arbitrariness on the part of Respondent in the treatment afforded to Claimant, but that there has been no discrimination. The finding of such Treaty violations by Respondent entails – in principle – that it has to redress any harm caused. The Tribunal should consider the way in which each breach has occurred and their scope in order to quantify such damages. This is what the Tribunal will do in the following paragraphs.

This Court has already recognized that removing an individual from the ballot based on technical defects poses serious and difficult “constitutional problems.” In re Francis, 186 S.W.3d at 542. That is reason enough not to construe Section 172.0222(i) as abrogating this Court’s equitable authority to permit candidates to cure technical violations. “Courts decide constitutional questions only when the issue cannot be resolved on non-constitutional grounds.” In re Ginsberg, 630 S.W.3d 1, 10 (Tex. 2018). Multiple non-constitutional grounds for denial are available here, as explained above.

Alternatively, Petitioners ask the Court to rewrite the Opinion so as to not follow Casteel or rather provide "guidance" on Casteel so that the Court may presume that the jury's negligence finding was based on the humped crossing theory and not the yield sign theory. This result, of course, directly conflicts with Casteel and the cases that have since followed it. If the reviewing court cannot determine if a jury's liability finding was based on a legally supported theory or an unsupported one, it must presume error and remand for a new trial. The Opinion adhered to this principle and adhered to each of the precedents that have followed Casteel.

The Opinion does not open door for "granulating a simple negligence question into multiple special issues" as Amici speculate.31 Rule 277 merely directs the use of broad-form submissions "whenever feasible." As the Opinion notes, "Rule 277 30 As discussed in KCSR's Motion for Rehearing, the charge as to the humped crossing claim was error in part because it never told the jury what facts it must find to determine if ICCTA preemption exists. Of course, if that question should have been answered by the trial court instead of the jury, it never happened in this case, as the only ruling the trial court made was to deny KCSR's motion for summary judgment on the issue. The issue was yet to be decided, but the trial court did not rule on it, nor was it submitted to the jury for determination of the facts as necessary to decide the issue. In light of this failure by the trial court, this Court did not have before it the factual predicate necessary to decide the issue. Nevertheless, the Court has held KCSR to a requirement that it somehow establish federal preemption as a matter of law. Op., p. 29. KCSR's Motion for Rehearing points out that KCSR has thus been denied the opportunity to present its defense of federal preemption because it has not had an opportunity to have the finder-of-fact, applying a preponderance of the evidence standard, make a determination of the facts necessary to decide the issue.

The only reason that the finality of a § 1.111(e) agreement will likely ever be before a court is that one party to it latently believes that the agreement was ill advised and probably entered into without requisite or accurate knowledge. If every contract theory of avoidance is available to the party wishing to void the agreement, the specific finality of the agreement dictated in the statute will be seriously weakened and the legislative intent of finality avoided. Courts will defer to the expressed legislative intent of a statute. Texas Lottery Com’n v. First Bank of DeQueen, 325 S.W.3d 628, 635 (Tex. 2010).

According to Respondents, Oncor just seeks to change an erroneous “value,” and the Tax Code excludes “a mistake in judgment or reasoning” from the definition of a “clerical error.” See Respondents’ Brief at 19. But Oncor does not seek a substantive reevaluation of market value.3 Oncor seeks to correct an objective error in the allocation of the agreed-upon market value to specific jurisdictions. Specifically, P&A unknowingly used transposed numbers for the total mileage of Sharyland’s 138kV and 345kV transmission lines. The allocation error “results from a mistake ... in writing ... or calculating,” so it falls squarely within the statutory definition of a clerical error. See Tex. Tax Code § 1.04(18)(A).

In a case in which Valerus, the owner, tried to set aside an agreement under § 1.111(e) on the basis of mutual mistake, the Thirteenth Court of Appeals held for the appraisal district, stating that Valerus’s argument that mistake, like fraud, should render the agreement void or voidable is misplaced pursuant to § 25.25(d), which allows for a correction to an error, or mistake, in valuation under certain circumstances and which states that an error may not be corrected when “the appraised value of the property was established as a result of a written agreement between the property owner or the owner’s agent and the appraisal district.” Valerus Field Sols., LP v.

Indeed, the quote invoked by the Claimant is not of the report, but of a communication of 2 August 2022 (i.e., two years after the issuance of the report), whereby the MOPC’s Finance Director forwards the Comptroller General’s report to the MOPC’s General Counsel seemingly pursuant to the latter’s request.

What this Court actually held in the context of a settlement agreement was: In the first instance, it is up to a local appraisal board to decide whether there has been more than one protest relating to the same property. While a board has no authority to change a settlement reached by a taxpayer and the chief appraiser, it certainly has the authority to take note of what property was included. (emphasis added). Matagorda at 131. Of course an appraisal review board, or a court for that matter, may examine a settlement agreement to discern its contents. How else would the examiner know what the agreement covered and whether it was precluded from doing what? What this Court actually did was affirm that the ARB could not change a settlement agreement.

R, M : Claimants failed to demonstrate how requested documents are relevant to its case and material for the outcome of the proceedings. In particular, Claimants failed to explain how the documentation relating to the Environmental Impact Assessment Report is relevant to the question of Obnova's alleged rights or material to the Tribunal's determination of this question. This is a classic "fishing expedition", with Claimants simply casting about for any documents which might contain information they consider helpful in substantiating their (unsubstantiated) case. PCC : In any event, the requested documents are accessible to Obnova/Claimants.236 In other words, the requested documents are "in the public domain and equally and effectively available to both parties".237 Respondent, just like Claimants, must address mentioned authority in order to obtain documents in question.238 Therefore, it is equally burdensome for Respondent as it is for Claimants to obtain these documents and it is not justified encumbering Respondent with the task that can be performed by Claimants themselves.

The heart of the prohibitive arbitration costs analysis resides in the penultimate paragraph and its accompanying footnote. There, the Court elucidates that “ If AutoNation insists on some payment from Shattenkirk, and Shattenkirk resists arbitration on that ground, only then will the court have to address the legal basis for Shattenkirk's obligation to pay and, if so, what amount. And only once that question is answered would an assessment of unconscionability be ripe for judicial consideration.” Id. In the accompanying footnote this Court further elaborates that if AutoNation did insist on some payment the case would would no longer be based on speculation “ but would be grounded on a factual record regarding Shattenkirk's actual obligations.” Id. at n.4.

It is unclear what Serbia is actually arguing on this issue. To begin with, Serbia argues that searching for responsive documents would put Serbia “ in the difficult position of searching both physical archives and 160 Article 5(2) of the Law on Free Access to the Information of Public Importance states that everyone has the right to have the information of public importance made available to them, by providing them with an access to a document containing information of public importance, the right to a copy of that document, and the right to have a copy of the document sent to him by mail, fax, by email or otherwise, upon their request.

Thus, Kemp cannot be used to rationalize the conflicts created in this case between the basic statutory principles and the court of appeals’ untenable rule.

Aside from Oncor’s imaginative recasting of the facts in this matter making the error in question seem like entirely the mistake of Wilbarger CAD’s appraisal firm, Oncor suggests again the that agreement in question was really an agreement on total mileage across the state and that “a simple scrivener’s error in a single email resulted in over $7 million in additional tax liability across multiple Texas counties. Some $2.5 million is still at issue.” Petitioner’s Brief at 21. First, note that Oncor makes no cite to the record. The record does not support the argument. There is no “single email” that is the agreement before this Court. The “agreement” in question is found at Appendix A, I C.R. 18. It specifically agrees to values in Wilbarger County and Wilbarger County alone. It is signed by a representative of Sharyland and a representative of Wilbarger CAD. There is no apparent “mistake or failure in writing, copying, transcribing, entering or retrieving computer data, computing, or calculating” as is described in TEX. TAX CODE § 1.04(18)(A) as being the definition of a clerical error. If Oncor now believes the values to which it agreed were erroneous, that represent a “mistake in judgment” on its part which TEX. TAX CODE § 1.04(18)(B) excludes from the definition of clerical error.

The same analysis applies with equal force to the Program, a quintessential example of the issue-driven, advocacy-oriented journalism that is a standard part of the contemporary media diet in Texas and beyond. See Pet. Br. at 35 n.9 (noting that such reporting has been awarded for over 30 years). Even if the Program’s statements about the “crime of the 21st century” and “textbook guardianship abuse” could be understood to refer to Barina’s conduct rather than to the ingrained inequities of the institution of guardianship (as is actually the case), they are highly subjective, and thus unverifiable, characterizations uttered by individuals on one side of a heated national debate.

On March 10, 2021, the Martinez Family filed a plea to the jurisdiction, asking to dismiss its own suit for judicial review. The plea was predicated on two theories: 1) that DWC's final decision was void ab initio because "[w]ithout an actual claim for benefits, there can be no 'benefit dispute' for [DWC] to resolve, but only a hypothetical or contingent one," and 2) to the extent DWC ever had jurisdiction over the contested issue, the question was rendered moot when "the possibility of a claim [for benefits] and a dispute over such a claim was forever foreclosed" when the statute of limitations expired on the Martinez Family's right to file a claim for benefits.

These determinations are, in turn, dire ctly relevant and material to show that Serbia’s assertion that Obnova did not have any permanent rights to its premises at Dunavska 17-19 and Dunavska 23 because Luka Beograd had the right of use to these premises and Obnova only leased them, is false.

Further, the Plan did not really give HSMiller much incentive to prosecute after the initial $6 million settlement with Diamond State: (i) HSMiller had to fund up front the fees, costs, and expenses related 24 to the litigation; and (ii) HSMiller would not receive any funds from the first $5 million recovered, it would receive only 30% of net proceeds between $5 million and $13 million, and 70% of net proceeds above $13 million. See Plan at 10 (Pet’rs’ Br. PDF at 142). Yet, HSMiller has pursued the case to a second malpractice trial even though the first trial ended in a take nothing judgment because of the Diamond State settlement and because the jury put 40% fault on Defterios and 10% fault on HSMiller.4 Newsom, Terry & Newsom v. Henry S. Miller Comm. Co ., No. 05-20-00379-CV, 2022 WL 3908542, *2 (Tex. App.—Dallas Aug. 31, 2022, pet. filed). There is still a stick hanging over HSMiller’s head since the $6 million settlement did not fully cover the original $8.9 million judgment entered in 2009. Under the terms of the Plan and the litigation agreement, would HSMiller’s decision not to pursue a second malpractice trial have been considered “best efforts”? One also wonders who benefitted more from the second suit and maybe a third suit — HSMiller or its former adversary who gets 70% of the next $7 million?

In addition to the illegal assignment, another reason requires the Court to reverse and render: legally insufficient evidence supports the jury’s verdict on malpractice liability. HSMiller attempts to rebut two of the Lawyers’ no-evidence arguments — the timing of moving to designate Flaven as a responsible third party (RTP), and the strategy of stipulating to Defterios’s authority as an agent of HSMiller — but fails to point to any legally sufficient evidence to support 28 liability on either theory.
