Fitch v. International Harvester Co.
Texas Supreme Court · Decided January 31, 1962 · Per Curiam
354 S.W.2d 372; 163 Tex. 221; 5 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 234; 1962 Tex. LEXIS 725 (South Western Reporter, Second Series)

Fitch v. International Harvester Co.

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

The Court of Civil Appeals dismissed the appeal to that Court for want of prosecution. 350 S.W. 2d 395. This action was not erroneous. Rules 414 and 415, Texas Rules of Civil Procedure. The appeal having been dismissed, discussion by the Court of Civil Appeals of the merits of the appeal and its affirmance of the trial court’s judgment may be regarded as mere surplusage inasmuch as the judgment of the trial court stands unimpaired upon the dismissal of the appeal therefrom.

The application for writ of error is refused, no reversible error.
