Texas Supreme Court
Calvin Jackson v. Reuben A. Hall
November 3, 1948147 Tex. 245
Summary
The Texas Supreme Court granted the petition for mandamus, holding that the Court of Civil Appeals erred in transferring the case to Dallas County and should instead remand for a new trial in Cherokee County because the venue issue was not fully developed. The Court relied on the established rule that appellate courts must remand when a trial‑court judgment lacks evidentiary support.
