C & H Transportation Co. v. Jensen & Reynolds Construction Co.

How later courts describe this case

• noting that even in death penalty cases objections to jury instructions cannot be raised for the first time on appeal
• where a number of challenges were in issue, the most representative voir dire was used
• fact that payment mailed to Texas is hardly significant in terms of purposeful availment
• although the trial court made arguably improper remarks to a venireperson, counsel found reasonably effective despite failure to object because court was attempting to explain the law
