Description
Appellant Steve Rodriguez, third-party defendant below, brought cross-claims against appellee U.S. Security Associates, Inc. (USSA) and others who allegedly represented to his health care providers that he was an employee of USSA entitled to health insurance benefits, but then denied both the relationship and the benefits. After a lengthy procedural history, including two removals, two remands, and a bench trial, the trial court entered a take-nothing judgment against both Rodriguez and USSA on their claims against each other. In three issues, Rodriguez contends the trial court erred in (1) granting USSAs motion to strike his timely-filed first amended cross-claim and not permitting him an opportunity to replead, (2) dismissing his tort claims based on federal preemption, and (3) holding that he was not a third-party beneficiary of the purchase agreement between USSA and his former employer and thus could not recover on a claim for wrongful termination.
