This is a Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act (DTPA) implied warranty case. Appellees sued Sears, Roebuck and Company (Sears) for personal injury damages allegedly resulting from repairs to the appellees riding lawn mower. Appellees alleged that Sears was negligent and breached the implied warranty to repair or modify existing tangible goods or property in a good and workmanlike manner, constituting a violation of the DTPA. TEX. BUS. & COM. CODE ANN. ? 17.41. Following a non-jury trial, the trial court entered judgment in favor of appellees finding that Sears had been negligent and had breached the implied warranty to repair in a good and workmanlike manner. The trial court awarded the appellees actual damages, additional damages for a knowing violation under the DTPA, attorneys fees, and prejudgment and postjudgment interest. We reverse and render judgment for Sears.
