Mr. Jackson, who is Board Certified in Civil Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, and Ms. Mann have earned selection in the annual Best Lawyers listing for years.

The firm recently helped the daughters of an elderly North Texas woman win a record-setting $7.3 billion negligence verdict against Charter Communications after a field technician for the company’s Spectrum division brutally stabbed their mother to death. The verdict handed down in late July is one of the five largest jury awards in U.S. history.

Jurors heard how Charter/Spectrum failed to properly screen the employee who killed Betty Jo Thomas, 83, a day after fixing a fax machine at her home in Irving. He arrived wearing a Spectrum uniform and driving a Spectrum van even though he was off the clock. After entering her home and killing Ms. Thomas, the technician stole her credit card and went on a spending spree before being arrested. He was sentenced to life in prison last year after pleading guilty to murder.

Jury Assesses Punitive Damages

In addition to more than $300 million in actual damages, the jury assessed $7 billion in punitive damages against Charter/Spectrum after hearing evidence that the company relied on forged documents to try to force Ms. Thomas’ family to bring their case before an arbitration panel instead of a jury. The scheme failed, and the jury responded with the massive award in Goff, et al. v. Holden, et al., No. CC-20-01579-E, in Dallas County Court-At-Law No. 5.

Cheryl Mann Details Advantages for Clients Who Use Particular Texas Legal Rule

Experienced attorney Cheryl Mann of The Law Offices of Brad Jackson recently co-authored an article for the Dallas Bar Association publication Headnotes about a simpler and more cost-effective way to resolve important issues in Texas civil lawsuits prior to trial.

Ms. Mann and Cowles & Thompson shareholder Mike Northrup wrote the piece focusing on Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 166(g), which allows courts to decide a variety of legal matters before trial without the time and expense of a full-blown motion to dismiss or a motion for summary judgment.

Legal Rule Benefits Clients in All Types of Civil Lawsuits

In the article, Ms. Mann and Mr. Northrup note the 30-year history of Rule 166(g) and how Texas courts have used the rule to streamline the focus of civil lawsuits well before trial or on the eve of trial. For example, by eliminating the requirement of a 21-day notice for a hearing on summary judgment or a motion to dismiss, Rule 166(g) motions can be decided based on whatever timeline is set by the court.

Other Rule 166(g) advantages highlighted by Ms. Mann and Mr. Northrup include the ability to get a court ruling on pivotal legal issues early in the life of a lawsuit, which allows both parties to focus on discovery matters and other important case developments. Go to Page 14 at this link to read the entire article on the Dallas Bar Association website and see the many other ways Rule 166(g) may benefit your case.
