Childress County v. Sachse

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The application for writ of error is REFUSED. NO REVERSIBLE ERROR. We approve the holding of the Court of Civil Appeals that changes in precinct boundaries do not create a vacancy in the office of County Commissioner or deprive the incumbent of the right to hold office for the remainder of his term, even though by reason of such changes his residence is not within the precinct as redefined. 310 S.W. 2d 414.

Opinion delivered April 23, 1958.
