Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • explaining that Texas law does not have a product-line successor liability rule and that Texas law explicitly states that an acquiring company may not be held responsible for a liability of the transferring entity that it does not expressly assume
  • “Texas law explicitly rejects the product-line successor liability rule . . . .”
  • “The fact that one non-insured entity is purportedly sued for the actions of another insured entity [under the single business enterprise doctrine] does not magically metamorphose a non-insured into an insured. This is a logic-challenged idea.”
