Fort Worth Improvement District No. 1 v. City of Fort Worth.

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the appeal was from a temporary injunction, not a final judgment, so the procedural requirements of a motion for new trial and assignments of error did not apply; it affirmed the district court's injunction restraining the improvement district from completing the levee until the city’s waterworks were protected, because the levee would injure the city’s riparian property and violate the Texas Constitution’s takings clause.
