Description
REAVLEY, Circuit Judge: Rafiq A. Danawala sued Houston Lighting & Power (HL&P) and HL&P Supervisor William Wellborn (collectively defendants), claiming that Wellborn defamed him by communicating to others that he falsified a document. After the jury returned a verdict in favor of Danawala, the district court granted the defendants' motion for judgment as a matter of law, and conditionally granted the defendants' alternative motion for a new trial. Danawala appeals. We hold that Wellborn's communications were privileged and affirm the district court's judgment.
