Key v. Forshagen

57 S.W.2d 232 | Tex. App. | 1933

This suit, based on a promissory note due September 15, 1927, was filed September 15, 1931. The defendant's plea of limitation was overruled, and judgment entered for plaintiff. The defendant appealed.

The defendant had all of September 15, 1927, in which to pay the note, and the cause of action therefore did not accrue until September 16, 1927. 6 Tex.Jur. 680, 878; Standard v.

The judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
