Description
The issue in this appeal is whether the court of appeals applied the proper standard of review when it found the evidence
factually insufficient to support the jury's determination of lost earnings. Because the court of appeals failed to adhere
to the standard required by Pool v. Ford Motor Company, 715 S.W.2d 629 (Tex. 1986), a majority of the court reverses the judgment
of the court of appeals and remands the cause to that court for application of the proper standard of review. Enrique Sosa filed suit against the City of Balch Springs to recover damages for an injury caused to his wrist during an
arrest by the police of that city. Sosa's claim was tried to a jury, which awarded him damages for past and future physical
pain and mental anguish, past and future physical impairment, and past medical expenses. The jury also awarded Sosa damages
for loss of earnings in the past and loss of earning capacity in the future. The trial court rendered judgment for Sosa on
the jury's verdict.
