Respondent, a roofing contractor, challenged the Texas Insurance Code's licensing and dual-capacity regulations for public insurance adjusters, claiming these laws violated their First and Fourteenth Amendment rights.

Appellant, a Mississippi resident, brought a wrongful death action against appellee Transco, a Nevada corporation, and appellee McLane Company, a Texas corporation, for the death of her son, a Florida resident, who died after an automobile collision in Florida involving a tractor-trailer owned by Transco and operated by employees of McLane.
