Darlene Price, Petitioner v. the Estate of Welton Terry Anderson, Deceased, Respondents

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the filing of the original petition within the two‑year limitations period, together with service on the temporary administrator, interrupted the running of the statute of limitations, so the claim was not barred despite the initial misidentification of the defendant. Accordingly, the lower courts' dismissal was reversed and the case remanded for trial.
