Chavez v. Aetna Finance Company
Texas Supreme Court · Decided January 4, 1978
561 S.W.2d 799 (South Western Reporter, Second Series)

Chavez v. Aetna Finance Company

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The judgment of the court of civil appeals, 558 S.W.2d 174, in remanding the cause for new trial is correct, and accordingly we refuse the application for writ of error, no reversible error.

The applicability of the so-called Rule of 78ths, Tex.Rev.Civ.Stat.Ann. art. 5069-3.-15(6), to the situation of default and acceleration was not directly considered by the lower courts. We express no opinion as to its applicability in the event the question is raised in the second trial.
