The lawsuit also charged the com pany with the wrongful death of Gra vitt. His widow said the investiga tions and the slanders against him caused him to go insane and kill him self. The trial court ruled for Ashley and Gravitt’s widow and awarded them damages of $1.5 million each. Then the Court of Civil Appeals ruled that the company’s behavior toward its executives was not moti vated by “actual malice,” that is, the company was not guilty of knowing falsity or reckless disregard for the truth. Ashley and Gravitt’s widow were therefore not entitled to dam ages. It was that opinion that the Sup reme Court declined to review. State law permits appeal of slander cases to the Supreme Court only when there is conflict among the appeals courts or between an appeals court and the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court found that it had no jurisdiction. ;e, farmers rs, along* 1 sqirrels. eason does Nov. 1 :nt of Fish ie exempli gry resident' the creal >y the farm —with six t« rs and beaver i James Dif prove lent Johni makers to c® 3 levee prom state and nely agreeing plan for Wj H ATM STUDY ABROAD XTm ST - Q 3 H V) ±s iajjv avonarv Aanxs wjy vO* I 216 ^ ' require; IS UMf E fl45^ 845'l5 1i Professionals + $ = energy There’s only one equation that will solve the nation’s energy crisis .. .. and that’s to combine talented concerned people, provide capital get the job done and then set demanding but realistic goals.
