JUDGMENT

This court has considered the record on appeal in this case and holds that there

was error in part of the trial court’s judgment. It is ordered that the judgment of the

trial court is affirmed in part and reversed and remanded in part. We affirm that

portion of the trial court’s judgment that dismisses Appellant Suzi G. Bishara’s suit.

We also affirm the trial court’s decision to award attorney’s fees. However, we reverse

the trial court’s judgment as to the amount of the attorney’s fees awarded and remand this case to the trial court solely for a redetermination of reasonable and necessary

trial attorney’s fees incurred.

It is further ordered that Appellant Suzi G. Bishara shall pay one-half of all

costs of this appeal and Appellee Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Fort Worth

Inc., d/b/a Texas Health Harris Methodist, Hurst-Euless-Bedford, shall pay one-half

of all costs of this appeal, for which let execution issue.
