Texas Supreme Court
California Products, Incorporated v. Puretex Lemon Juice, Incorporated
March 23, 1960160 Tex. 586
Summary
The Texas Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Civil Appeals, holding that the plaintiffs lacked a justiciable controversy necessary for a declaratory judgment and that the trial court could not modify the terms of the prior injunction. The Court explained that declaratory judgments may not be advisory and that the existing injunction remains enforceable pending a contempt proceeding.
