Brookshire Groc. Co. v. Morgan

Summary

The court vacated the court of appeals’ memorandum opinion because it did not meaningfully analyze the legal question presented, which concerned whether the injured worker was an employee or an independent contractor. It remanded for proper legal analysis and held that all briefed cases submitted to the court of appeals must be resolved in full, written majority opinions. The court also overruled the prior memorandum-opinion policy and immediately amended the applicable appellate rule.
