Supreme Court of Texas

In a secured creditor's suit for deficiency against a used-car dealer, the court of appeals' order setting aside the jury verdict in favor of the secured creditor in finding no evidence of commercial reasonableness is reversed and remanded where: 1) the jury charge did not alter the standard for commercial reasonableness under Article 9, as the court of appeals erred in reading the jury instruction on commercial reasonableness to require evidence of a reasonable dealer standard; and 2) evidence of commercial reasonableness here is legally sufficient to support the jury's verdict.
