119 S.W. 906 | Tex. App. | 1909
The appeal in this case is dismissed for the following reason: Appellee Rudolph sued John F. Carter and appellant S. M. Ingraham in the Justice's Court of precinct number four, Sherman County, and recovered judgment against both of them in the sum of one hundred and ninety-nine dollars and ninety-five cents. From this judgment Ingraham alone appealed to the County Court, and in the latter court the case was again tried as between the plaintiff and the defendant Ingraham, and a judgment entered against that defendant alone, making no disposition whatever of the defendant Carter.
It has long been the settled doctrine in this State that on appeal to *610
the County Court from the Justice's Court the trial is de novo,
the effect of such appeal being to annul the judgment of the Justice's Court, and it has equally long been the rule that an appeal by any party against whom the judgment was rendered annuls the judgment in its entirety. Moore v. Jordan,
Dismissed.
