H. R. Decker v. John A. Kiruicks

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Civil Appeals' judgment, holding that it lacks jurisdiction under Article 1521, subdivision 6 to review the appellate court's evidentiary rulings, and reaffirming that a forfeiture provision must be plain and clear; ambiguity precludes enforcement. Justice Hawkins dissented, arguing the jurisdictional statute should allow correction of any such evidentiary error.
