198 S.W. 1012 (Tex. Civ. App. 1917)

Opinion

No. 739.

November 21, 1917.

Appeal from District Court, Erath County; W. J. Oxford, Judge.

Suit by Eliza McKenzie against J. L. Sutton and another. From judgment of dismissal, plaintiff appeals. Cause reversed and remanded for trial on the merits.

Hickman Bateman and B. E. Cook, all of Stephenville, for appellant. Chandler Pannill, of Stephenville, for appellees.


This suit was brought by Eliza McKenzie against J. L. Sutton and Lucas McKenzie, a direct proceeding to set aside a judgment to cancel deed and remove cloud and for title to certain real estate. The trial court sustained a general demurrer to the petition and dismissed the suit.

The allegations of plaintiff's petition are the same in form and as to facts, except as to parties and land sued for, as is shown in her suit No. 729 (McKenzie v. Frey, 198 S.W. 1009), this day handed down by this court, and the contentions of the parties in their briefs are the same as in that case. So for the reasons there assigned, this cause is reversed and remanded for trial upon its merits.

WALTHALL, J., not sitting, being absent on committee of judges assisting the Supreme Court.
