1985Appellee’s contention is based upon the language contained in Chemical Cleaning, Inc., v. Chemical Cleaning & Equipment Service, Inc., 462 S.W.2d 276 (Tex.1970) (per curiam) wherein the Court stated: A trial court may commit error in overruling a motion for new trial because vital jury findings are contrary to the great weight and preponderance of the evidence, but it does not for that reason commit error in rendering judgment on the verdict.

1982As our Supreme Court said in Chemical Cleaning Inc. v. Chemical Cleaning & Equipment Service, Inc., 462 S.W.2d 276 (Tex.1970), A trial court may commit error in overruling a motion for new trial because vital jury findings are contrary to the great weight and preponderance of the evidence, but it does not for that reason commit error in rendering judgment on the verdict.
