The 13th Court of Appeals has temporarily halted all proceedings in the wrongful death lawsuit of a Weslaco cheerleader, Larissa Rodriguez, who died in October 2025 due to an enlarged heart linked to stress and caffeine consumption. The court's order, issued on Monday, requires attorneys to respond within ten days. This decision follows a Hidalgo County judge's ruling allowing the case to proceed. The lawsuit targets Glazer’s Beer and Beverage, LLC, and Glazer’s Beer and Beverage of Texas, LLC, which distributed the energy drinks consumed by Rodriguez. The appeals court is reviewing Glazer's petition against the trial judge's decision.
