Description
Texas American Bank, referred to as the Bank, appeals from an adverse judgment in a suit brought against it by Boggess for negligent hiring of a repossessor of vehicles which the Bank had financed and taken a security interest in. The cause was submitted to the jury on the issues of whether or not the Bank was negligent in engaging Terry Cecil as a repossessor of Boggess vehicle and whether that negligence, if any, was a proximate cause of personal injuries to Boggess. The jury returned a verdict in Boggess favor of $120,600 and the court, after overruling a motion for directed verdict by the Bank, reduced the damages to $104,600 and entered judgment for that amount.
