OPINION

SEERDEN, Chief Justice.

This appeal is from the granting of a summary judgment and involves the "after-acquired evidence doctrine." We reverse the summary judgment and remand the cause to the trial court.

Appellant, Ofelia Montiel, administrator of her deceased husband's estate, sued appellee, Trico Technologies, Inc., alleging that Trico discharged her husband, Juan Montiel, for filing a worker's compensation claim.1
