FURR'S SUPERMARKETS, INC. v. BETHUNE

No. 00-0846.

53 S.W.3d 375 (2001)

FURR'S SUPERMARKETS, INC., Petitioner, v. Marthana BETHUNE, Respondent.

Supreme Court of Texas.

Decided June 28, 2001.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mark C. Walker, Steven L. Hughes, Mounce Green Myers Safi & Galatzan, El Paso, petitioner.

Dennis L. Richard, Richard Cobb & Hall, El Paso, for respondent.

Justice ENOCH delivered the opinion of the Court, joined by Chief Justice PHILLIPS, Justices HECHT, OWEN and JFFFERSON.

In this case the trial court did not assess court costs against Marthana Bethune, the losing party, and for Furr's, the prevailing party, as Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 131 requires.1 The trial court relied on Rule 141, which permits a "good cause" exception to Rule 131 that is "to be stated on the record."
