Supreme Court of Texas

A court of appeals' reversal of a sanctions order imposed on an attorney for discovery abuse, committed in the course of representing a group of employees in an employment discrimination suit, is reversed where the court of appeals erred in holding that a trial court must specifically find that the party, not just the attorney, abused the discovery process in order to impose sanctions under Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 215.3.
