Moore v. Cobe
Moore v. Cobe
Opinion of the Court
With the consent of the court, appellant filed her petition (which- is called plea in intervention) in the suit then pending in the district court of Reeves county, viz., Ira M. Cobe v. Toyah Valley Irrigation Company, and in which J. G. Love is the duly appointed and acting receiver of the defendant irrigation company, by which petition she prays that the order appointing said receiver be vacated and said receiver discharged. In her petition she refers to and makes a part thereof her petition in another original suit in which she seeks to establish her rights in the waters of Toyah creek as against the irrigation company, of which J. G. Love is receiver, to show that she has an interest in the matters involved in the receivership. Upon motion of Ira M. Cobe and J. G. Love to dismiss her bill, the following judgment was entered: “Ira M. Cobe v. Toy-ah Valley Irrigation. No. 1,000. June 20, 1912. This day came on to be heard in the above styled and numbered cause the motion of plaintiff and the receiver, J. G. Love, to dismiss from said case the petition of intervention heretofore filed by Mrs. J. L. Moore, also the plaintiff’s and receiver J. G. Love’s general and special demurrers to said petition in intervention, one of which said special exceptions was because said petition in intervention was not verified, whereupon the intervener offered to verify said petition, and the court ordered that said petition be considered verified by the affidavit of said Mrs. J. L. Moore; and thereupon said special exception was overruled. Then came on to be heard the plaintiff’s and receiver J. G. Love’s general demurrer to said petition in intervention, and the court, having heard and considered said general demurrer, is of the opinion that same should be overruled, and same is in all things overruled. Then came on to be heard the motion of plaintiff and receiver, J. G. Love, to dismiss from said case said petition in intervention, and the court having heard said motion and heard said petition, and having heard the evidence offered by plaintiff, the receiver, J. G. Love, and of the intervener, Mrs. J. L. Moore, and having heard argument of counsel, and having considered same, and finding from said pleadings and evidence that the intervener, Mrs. J. L.' Moore, has no interest in the subject-matter of the suit and is in no way ca-pacitated to intervene in said suit, and the court finding that, from the evidence adduced on the hearing of said motion, the allegations in intervener’s petition were not true, the court Is of the opinion that said motion should be in'all things sustained. It is therefore ordered, adjudged, and decreed by the court that the plaintiff’s and J. G. Love’s motion to strike out the plea in intervention be in all things sustained, and said plea in intervention be and the same is hereby dismissed. To which action of the court the said Mrs. J. L. Moore then and there in open court excepted and gave notice of appeal to the Court of Civil Appeals of the Eighth Supreme Judicial District of Texas, at El Paso.”
