Biz Court Jury Sides with Deposition Video Producer in Fight with Ex-Business Partner

SmartDisk, a deposition video and production company that started in Houston more than 20 years ago, was vindicated by a panel of Texas Business Court jurors Tuesday afternoon when they agreed a former business partner owes the company about $6.4 million in damages for breach of an agreement. 

The panel of 12 heard opening statements in the lawsuit against Lexitas Sept. 1, and, after hearing closing arguments Tuesday, began deliberating around noon. Just before 4:30 p.m., after submitting two questions to the court, they reached a 10-2 verdict.
