Court of Civil Appeals of Texas, 1918

Baker v. Cole

Baker v. Cole
Court of Civil Appeals of Texas · Decided February 27, 1918 · Jenkins
203 S.W. 411; 1918 Tex. App. LEXIS 462 (South Western Reporter)

Baker v. Cole

Opinion of the Court

JENKINS, J.

There is enough in the record in this case to show that it originated in the justice court for an amount less than $200, but there is no transcript in the record from the justice court, no final judgment of that court, and no appeal bond from the justice court to the county court. For these reasons, it is not made to appear that the county court had jurisdiction to try this case, and, that court having no jurisdiction, we are without appellate jurisdiction.

For the reasons stated, the appeal in this case is dismissed.

Appeal dismissed.
