38 S.W 1147

Robson v. Byler

Texas Supreme Court

Decided December 3, 1896

Texas Supreme Court · decided 1896-12-03

The application was by Robson and Sawyers to obtain a writ of error-to revise a decision affirming a judgment of the District Court perpetuating an order enjoining applicants from reopening a highway over plaintiffs’ land, which had been closed for two years under an order of the Commissioners Court; which order plaintiffs claimed discontinued the road, but defendants, the road-overseers, attacked as invalid.

Decided 1896-12-03

GAINES, Chief Justice.

¶1 In our view of this case, it is not necessary to decide whether or not the same presumptions should be indulged in favor of’an order of the Commissioners Court in establishing a new road which obtain in reference to the judgments of courts of general jurisdiction. Without passing upon that question, we are of opinion that the correct-result was reached upon appeal and that there is no-error in the judgment of the Court of Civil Appeals.

¶2 The petition for the writ of error is therefore refused.

¶3 Writ of error refused.
