109 S.W. 400 | Tex. App. | 1908
Appellant Harris brought this suit in the justice's court, precinct No. 3 of Travis County, against the appellees for the sum of $175, as damages to his crop, occasioned by the alleged negligence of the appellees and their employes in leaving a gate open, thereby permitting stock to enter appellant's field and destroy the crop.
The appellant recovered a judgment against the appellees in the justice's court for $165, from which judgment the appellees appealed to the County Court, and there judgment was rendered in their favor for costs and to the effect that appellant take nothing by his suit.
We have carefully examined this record, and we discover that it contains neither an appeal bond nor an affidavit in lieu thereof filed in the justice's court. In Pace v. Webb,
The attempted appeal conferring no jurisdiction upon the County Court, of course, it follows that this court is lacking in jurisdiction. Therefore, the appeal will be dismissed at the cost of appellant.
Appeal dismissed.
