Garcia v. Allen, 28 S. W. 3d 587 (Tex. App. 06/08/2000) Texas Court of Appeals (Civil) NUMBER 13-99-032-CV June 08, 2000 Petition for review denied January 4, 2001. Specifically, Garcia alleges that his two supervisors, Garcia and Allen, made defamatory statements about him that he could not do his job with restrictions on his climbing, kneeling, and squatting, when they actually knew that to be false. Defendants Allen and Garcia admit to making the statements, but counter that the statements were true. Celanese attached to its summary judgment motion the affidavits of Allen and Garcia, Roel Garcia's supervisors. Garcia contends Donna Beltran gave misleading and perjured testimony regarding Hernandez at her deposition that prevented Garcia from discovering Hernandez' affidavit.
