Associated Oil Company v. Owen

Court of Civil Appeals of Texas, Eastland
Dec 21, 1928
11 S.W.2d 1118 (Tex. Civ. App. 1928)

Opinion

No. 496.

Writ of error dismissed.

November 23, 1928. Rehearing Denied December 21, 1928.

Appeal from Ninety-First District Court, Eastland County; Geo. L. Davenport, Judge.

See, also, 281 S.W. 607.

Baker, Botts, Parker Garwood, of Houston, and Joe F. Orr, of Fort Worth, for appellant.

Grisham Bros., of Eastland, for appellees.



The material facts and questions of law applicable to same, involved in this appeal, are deemed to be the same as in Associated Oil Co. v. Hart, 10 S.W.2d 791, recently decided by this court. It will therefore be unnecessary to make a statement of the case, further than to refer to the facts and issues involved in that case. The only issue in the trial court involved the proof of title to the minerals in place in particular tracts of land. The evidence on this issue was wholly documentary. The trial court held that appellant, being the plaintiff in the trial court, failed to prove title.

For the reasons discussed in Associated Oil Co. v. Hart, supra, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
