Description

Lynn Brasher, plaintiff below, appeals the granting of separate motions for summary judgment brought by the two defendants to his libel suit. The allegedly libelous publications were political pamphlets criticizing Brashers performance as mayor of the city of South Houston. Walter Carr authored the pamphlets printed at Al Thiels printing shop. The significant issues on appeal require balancing the appellees First Amendment rights to free expression of opinion on political issue with appellants right to seek damages against those who injure his reputation.
