How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding record references in statement of facts of appellate brief were sufficient to raise no evidence point when coupled with argument
- holding appellate court must search entire record for legal sufficiency challenge even though appellant did not include specific record citations but instead cited to “the entire record”
- stating that brief must contain “argument and authorities under each point of error, and all facts relied upon for the appeal with references to the pages in the record where those facts can be found”
- “[T]he mere intentional operation of a sewer system is insufficient to support liability [for a takings claim].”
- involving dislodgment of clogged sewer causing sewage backup into residence
- “Nor do we agree that the City’s citations to the ‘entire record’ waived its no-evidence issues,” but when challenging the strength of evidence supporting a verdict as no more than surmise or suspicion, party must “detail the relevant parts of the record.”
