In force majeure litigation arising out of Winter Storm Uri, we provided appellate support in a historic bench trial (the first ever in a Texas business court) that culminated in Marathon obtaining a declaration that its invocation of force majeure was proper and a take-nothing judgment on Mercuria's $26 million counterclaim. The Haynes Boone team played a key role in securing pre-trial summary judgment rulings that favorably positioned Marathon for trial and prepared, in collaboration with co-counsel, proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law that shaped the legal framework.
