The Texas Courts have recognized four elements of claiming business disparagement in Texas.
Under Texas law, business disparagement means that someone:
Published false and disparaging information about a business;
Acted with malice;
Acted without some kind of privilege; and
Committed actions resulting in some kind of special damages to the plaintiff.
