| theory_id ▼ | filing_id | theory | party | role | basis |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 502 | 68 68 | Presumption jury followed unanimity instructions (Columbia Rio Grande, Bruce, Stover) | Pohl | claim | Jury instructed to only answer Q17 'Yes' if unanimous and to only answer Q19 if unanimous on Q17; jury's affirmative answers demonstrate unanimity |
| 503 | 68 68 | Harmonization of jury findings (Menchaca, Bender, Luna, Jackson) | Pohl | claim | Court must reasonably construe jury findings to harmonize them; failure to do so is reversible error |
| 504 | 68 68 | Waiver of alleged verdict conflict (Menchaca, Burbage, Fleet, R. 295) | Pohl | claim | Kassab failed to object before jury discharged; party relying on conflicting answers bears burden to timely object |
| 505 | 68 68 | TUTSA actual loss encompasses consequential damages including separate-proceeding attorney fees | Pohl | claim | Broad plain meaning of 'actual loss'; flexible and imaginative approach (Sw. Energy); distinguished from same-lawsuit fees; Akin Gump permits recovery |
| 506 | 68 68 | Tort of another doctrine (Dixon Fin. Servs.) | Pohl | claim | Equitable recovery of attorney fees when party required to defend prior action as consequence of wrongful act; no wholly innocent party element (Naschke, Brannan Paving) |
| 507 | 68 68 | TUTSA authorizes both actual loss and unjust enrichment (§ 134A.004(a)) | Pohl | claim | Statute expressly permits both; market value = forward loss, development costs = past unjust enrichment; not duplicative because unjust enrichment disgorges gains rather than compensating loss |
| 508 | 68 68 | Conspiracy as rule of vicarious liability, not preempted (Agear Corp.) | Pohl | claim | Not independent tort but rule of joint liability; Chapter 33 doesn't supersede (Guillory, Stephens); no conflicting remedy — merely makes TUTSA damages joint and several |
| 509 | 68 68 | Pohl is prevailing party entitled to TUTSA attorney fees (§ 134A.005) | Pohl | claim | Actual damages over $1.4M greatly exceed $765K settlement credit |
