Texas Supreme Court

Sidney Van Zandt, Petitioners v. Fort Worth Press, Respondents

July 25, 1962359 S.W.2d 893

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the advertising claim brought by Ft. Worth Press does not fall within any of the seven classes of claims authorized for attorney‑fee recovery under Article 2226, because it is neither a sworn account nor a claim for personal services. Accordingly, the court reversed the attorney‑fee award and affirmed the remainder of the judgment.
