Charles M. Dickson v. J. J. Strickland

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court answered six certified questions, holding that the district court had jurisdiction and the plaintiff had standing, that Mrs. Miriam A. Ferguson was not ineligible on the basis of sex, marital status, or her husband's impeachment, and that there was no legal basis to treat her husband as the real candidate; consequently the lower court's denial of the injunction was affirmed.
