Description
This manufacturing defect case arises from a tragic single-vehicle accident, which resulted in the deaths of four occupants and serious injuries to three other occupants. Appellees, the surviving driver and occupants and estate administrators of the decedents (collectively, Athe Plaintiffs") sued Appellant Cooper Tire & Rubber Company (ACooper Tire"), asserting that a tire on the vehicle failed due to a manufacturing defect that caused the tires belt separation. The jury found in favor of the Plaintiffs and the trial court rendered judgment on the verdict against Cooper Tire in the total amount of $11,508,080. On appeal, Cooper Tire brings ten issues, with various sub-issues, for appellate review, including legal and factual sufficiency challenges to the jurys findings, the admissibility of certain evidence and expert testimony, jury charge error, improper jury argument, and jury misconduct. We affirm the trial courts judgment.
