APPEAL FROM THE 200TH DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY
BEFORE CHIEF JUSTICE ROSE, JUSTICES GOODWIN AND FIELD
AFFIRMED IN PART; REVERSED AND RENDERED IN PART
ON MOTION FOR REHEARING – OPINION BY JUSTICE GOODWIN
This is an appeal from the judgment signed by the trial court on May 16, 2014. The Court’s
opinion and judgment dated April 30, 2015, are withdrawn, and we deny appellees
cross-appellants’ motion for rehearing. Having reviewed the record and the parties’ arguments,
the Court holds that there was reversible error in the trial court’s judgment. The Court reverses
the portion of the trial court’s judgment that pertains to phase two of the trial and renders
judgment that American Multi-Cinema, Inc. is entitled to a refund in the amount of $579,656 for
report year 2008 and $591,293 for report year 2009, plus appropriate penalty and interest. The
Court affirms the remainder of the trial court’s judgment. Each party shall bear their own costs
relating to this appeal, both in this Court and in the court below.
