Description
This insurance dispute arises from United Services Automobile Association's (hereinafter "USAA") denial of Cecil and Darlene Wallis' claim for foundation damage to their home. Following denial of a claim under their homeowner's policy, *fn1 the Wallises sued USAA for breach of contract, fraud, negligence, bad faith, and violations of the DTPA and Insurance Code. A jury found in favor of the Wallises on their breach of contract claim, but determined that USAA had not acted in bad faith or violated its statutory duties in denying the claim. Both parties moved for judgment, with the trial court granting USAA's motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict. Because the jury's finding on the amount of damage caused solely by plumbing leaks is not supported by legally sufficient evidence, we affirm the trial court's judgment. The following Discussion is limited to that issue.
