County Judge Jon Lindsay, Petitioner v. Dorothy K. Sterling D/b/a “kays Mink Garter,” Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the Administrative Procedure and Texas Register Act (APTRA) applies to county‑judge hearings on wine and beer licenses and that the district court lacked jurisdiction because the applicant had not waited for a rehearing motion to be overruled; consequently the county judge’s denial was upheld and the lower courts' judgments were reversed.
