THE STATE OF TEXAS MANDATE TO THE 8TH DISTRICT COURT OF HOPKINS COUNTY, GREETINGS: Before the Court of Appeals for the Sixth Court of Appeals District of Texas, on the 30th day of October, A.D. 2014, the cause upon appeal to revise or reverse your Judgment was determined; and therein our said Court made its order in these words: $9,000.00 U.S. Currency, Appellant No. 06-14-00041-CV v.
