Terrencia Maduro ("Maduro") sued American Airlines, Inc. and Executive Services, Inc.. doing business as American Eagle (collectively "American"), alleging that American is liable for damages she incured when the airline bumped her from a flight. American denied Maduro's allegations ,and for several years after American served its answer, the parties conducted virtually no discovery. American eventually moved for summary judgement. The trial court granted American's motion, and Maduro filed this appeal. For the reasons which follow, we will affirm the trial court's grant of summary judgement in favor of American.
