Sovereign Camp Woodmen of World v. Dees

Supreme Court of Texas

100 Tex. 416 (Tex. 1907)

Opinion

Motion No. 1646.

Decided March 13, 1907.

Mandamus — Certifying Question.

Mandamus to require the Court of Civil Appeals to certify question on the ground of conflict of decisions is denied because no conflict is shown. Texas P. Ry. Co. v. Conner, ante, 407, followed.

Motion for leave to file petition for mandamus to the Court of Civil Appeals for the Fifth District.

Gossett, Terry Brown, for motion.


This is a motion to file a petition for a mandamus against the judges of the Court of Civil Appeals of the Fifth Supreme Judicial District, to compel them to certify a question to this court on which there is an alleged conflict between the decision of that court and the decisions of other Courts of Civil Appeals. The procedure is very like that adopted in the case of the Texas Pacific Railway Co. v. T.H. Conner and others, this day decided. In this case, as in that, we are clearly of opinion that no conflict is pointed out, and therefore the motion is overruled.
