[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 5019747, member: 1"] [URL='https://finance.yahoo.com/news/ups-appeal-successful-27-million-201340665.html'][B]UPS Appeal Successful; $27 Million Nuclear Verdict Remanded to Trial Court - Yahoo[/B][/URL] A $27 million-plus nuclear verdict against UPS handed down in 2019 has been overturned by a Texas appellate court and remanded to the trial court with a requirement for a venue change. The original case was heard in the Texas 58th District Court in Jefferson County. But the order handed down Thursday by Judge Charles Kreger of the Texas 9th Court of Appeals remands the case to Harris County, Texas, home of the city of Houston. UPS[B] [/B]and Byron Bisor, the driver from the 2018 wreck that was at the heart of the case, argued that the suit should not have been heard in Jefferson County, where the $27 million verdict was imposed. That verdict came from a bench trial, with Judge Kent Walston imposing the penalties. Neither Harris County nor Jefferson County is where the wreck occurred; they're not even in the same state. The wreck occurred in 2018 in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana, on Interstate 10. [/QUOTE]
