Ross v. NATIONAL CENTER FOR THE EMPLOYMENT OF THE DISABLED
Texas Supreme Court · Decided August 31, 2006 · Per Curiam
201 S.W.3d 694; 49 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 1017; 2006 Tex. LEXIS 787; 2006 WL 2506206 (South Western Reporter, Third Series)

Ross v. NATIONAL CENTER FOR THE EMPLOYMENT OF THE DISABLED

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

In this appeal, Petitioner Richard Ross seeks review of a turnover order requiring him to relinquish a letter of credit or its proceeds to the National Center for the Employment of the Disabled to satisfy a default judgment against him. In a separate but related appeal, we granted Ross’s bill of review and set aside the default judgment giving rise to the turnover order. Ross v. Nat’l Ctr. for the Employment of the Disabled, 197 S.W.3d 795 (Tex. 2006). “If the underlying judgment is reversed on appeal, then the turnover order must be reversed also.” Matthiessen v. Schaefer, 915 S.W.2d 479, 480 (Tex. 1995).

Accordingly, without hearing oral argument, we reverse the court of appeals’ judgment and render a take nothing judgment in the turnover proceeding. See id.; Tex.R.App. P. 59.1.
