O. H. Sullivan, Petitioners v. Pearl Barnett, Respondents

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court affirmed the trial court’s reform of the 1956 deed, 1959 deed of trust, and related instruments to remove clouds over the Sullivans’ 200‑acre homestead, holding that the statutes of limitation do not bar reformation when the mutual mistake was not discovered until after four years, but reversed the trial court’s cancellation of a separate mineral deed on a 40‑acre tract.
