Description
Appellant, U.S.A. Precision Machining Co., appeals a jury verdict that U.S.A. Precision breached a commission agreement with appellee, William S. Marshall. In U.S.A. Precision's appeal, we address (1) whether the trial court erred in excluding evidence of Marshall's prior murder conviction that had been set aside upon motion for new trial and (2) whether U.S.A. Precision preserved its complaint that the evidence is legally and factually insufficient to support the jury's implied finding that any agreement existed between the parties. In Marshall's appeal, we address whether the trial court's reduction of the jury's award of attorney's fees, apparently based on a contingency-fee agreement, was an abuse of discretion. We reverse that portion of the judgment in which the trial court remitted attorney's fees, modify the judgment to reinstate the jury's award of attorney's fees, and affirm the trial court's judgment as so modified.
