Date: 05-25-2025
Case Number: 23-cv-00147
Judge: David Counts
Court: United States District Court for the Western District of Texas (Midland County)
Plaintiff's Attorney: Matthew Skrabanek
Defendant's Attorney: Georgi Lowry
In Texas, personal injury law allows individuals injured by another party's negligence or intentional actions to seek compensation. This is a civil lawsuit, not a criminal case, where the injured party (plaintiff) seeks financial recovery from the responsible party (defendant). The legal basis is often negligence, meaning a failure to exercise ordinary care.
Key aspects of Texas personal injury law include:
Negligence:
.
A core concept, requiring proof of duty, breach of duty, causation, and damages.
Comparative Negligence:
.
Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule. If you are partially at fault, your compensation will be reduced proportionally, but if you are more than 50% at fault, you won't receive any compensation.
Statute of Limitations:
.
You generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit.
Damages:
.
Compensation can include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and potentially punitive damages in cases of malice, gross negligence, or fraud.
Texas Tort Claims Act:
.
This law waives sovereign immunity for certain acts of negligence by government entities.
Hospital Liens:
.
Texas law allows hospitals to place liens on personal injury cases to recover medical expenses.
