KING FISHER MARINE SERVICE, L.P., PETITIONER, v. JOSE H. TAMEZ, RESPONDENT

The court of appeals concluded the trial court acted within its discretion in refusing to hear a last-minute charge objection and that sufficient evidence supported the jury's specific-order finding. Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 272 affords trial courts the discretion to set a deadline for charge objections that precedes the reading of the charge to the jury as long as a reasonable amount of time is afforded for counsel to examine and object to the charge. The trial court provided a reasonable amount of time in this case. The court of appeals' judgment is affirmed. Texas Supreme Court, No. 13-0103, 08-29-2014
