Durham, Pittard & Spalding partner Rick Thompson recently helped secure a favorable outcome before the Texas Supreme Court in a healthcare-related privilege dispute involving access to evidence in a sexual assault case.
The Court’s Sept. 9 ruling allows lower-court orders requiring a hospital to produce documents concerning the alleged assault to stand, allowing discovery in the underlying healthcare liability lawsuit to move forward.
Rick handled the appellate matter alongside trial counsel Beth S. Janicek and Kristian Joy Barrientes.

Congratulations to DPS attorney Tammy Holt and the entire Durham, Pittard & Spalding appellate team on securing a significant victory in the Corpus Christi Court of Appeals in a wrongful death construction-site case involving negligent entrustment of a forklift and gross negligence claims.
The court reversed the trial court’s summary dismissal and remanded the case for further proceedings, allowing the plaintiffs’ claims to move forward.
We’re also grateful for the opportunity to work alongside Steve Dummitt and Landon Hays at The Carlson Law Firm in pursuing justice for the Hernandez family.
