Court of Civil Appeals of Texas, Texarkana
Jan 4, 1918
199 S.W. 1179 (Tex. Civ. App. 1918)

Opinion

No. 1892.

January 4, 1918.

Appeal from District Court, Cass County; H. F. O'Neal, Judge.

B. W. Lewis appeals from a judgment against him and in favor of J. M. McDowell and others. Appeal dismissed.

Turner Smitha and T. N. Graham, all of Texarkana, for appellant. O'Neal Allday, of Atlanta, for appellees.


To confer jurisdiction of the appeal upon this court the appeal bond must have been filed within 20 days after the expiration of the term at which the Judgment was rendered. Article 2084, Vernon's Statutes. Said term of the court ended April 13, 1917, and the bond was filed on the 25th day thereafterwards, to wit, on May 8, 1917. As this court, therefore, is without power to hear and determine the appeal, it is dismissed.
