DISSENTING OPINION

No. 04-01-00493-CV

IN THE INTEREST OF R.H., et al., Children

From the 225th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas

Trial Court No. 2000-PA-00420

Honorable David Berchelmann, Jr., Judge Presiding (1)

Opinion by: Phil Hardberger, Chief Justice

Dissenting opinion by: Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice

Sitting: Phil Hardberger, Chief Justice

Delivered and Filed: March 13, 2002

I must respectfully dissent because I do not believe that the Craddock rule applies. This was not, in my opinion, a post-answer "default" because the appellant's counsel appeared and participated at the trial. Accordingly, I would conclude that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying the appellant's motion for new trial.

PUBLISH

1. The Honorable Peter Sakai presided over the hearing, and his recommendations were adopted by the Honorable David Berchelmann, Jr.
