Description
In eight issues, Brian Rosell and Annette Kienetz, individually and as representatives of the estate of Chad Rosell, decedent (the Rosells), challenge a take-nothing judgment against them in their wrongful death and survival action against Central West Motor Stages, Inc. d/b/a Central West of Texas, Inc. (Central West), Loyd Earl Rieve, and Karen Bay. They contend that the trial judge was constitutionally unqualified to preside at the trial because his law license was suspended due to nonpayment of bar dues; the trial court erred in submitting improper liability and apportionment questions in the charge and refusing to submit instructions regarding the "Good Samaritan" and rescue doctrines; the trial court erred in including Chad in the negligence question; the evidence was factually insufficient to support the jury's apportionment of responsibility; the judgment should have included a punitive damages award; and the verdict was the result of an improper outside influence. For the reasons below, we resolve the Rosells' issues against them and affirm the trial court's judgment.
