Texas Supreme Court

Foster C. Dunn, Deceased, Petitioner v. Juanita Dunn, Respondent

June 4, 196912 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 441

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the trial court's oral pronouncement on May 24, 1967, constituted a final judgment under Rule 164, that the death of the husband did not require dismissal of the divorce action, and that the case was not moot, allowing the judgment to stand. Accordingly, the Court reversed the Court of Civil Appeals and affirmed the trial court's judgment.
