Freeman v. Jordan

33 Tex. 428

• Court: Texas Supreme Court
• Decided: July 1, 1870
• Status: Published

Opinion

Morrill, C. J.

This was a suit to recover two hundred dollars. The cause of action was not alleged to be liquidated and proved by any instrument in writing. Judgment was rendered by default without a jury.

This proceeding is erroneous, as appears by Article 496, Old-ham & White’s Digest. Wherefore the judgment is reversed.

Reversed and remanded.
