Appeals court orders pause on wrongful death lawsuit of Weslaco cheerleader
· KRGV (NBC 5)
The 13th Court of Appeals has temporarily halted the wrongful death lawsuit concerning Weslaco cheerleader Larissa Rodriguez. This decision, made on Monday, requires attorneys to respond within ten days. The pause follows a Hidalgo County judge's ruling that allowed the case to proceed. Rodriguez passed away in October 2025 due to an enlarged heart, linked to stress and excessive caffeine intake from Alani energy drinks. Her family is suing distributors Glazer’s Beer and Beverage, LLC, and Glazer’s Beer and Beverage of Texas, LLC. The appeals court will review Glazer's petition against the trial judge's decision to advance the case.
