Texas Supreme Court
Virginia Butts, Petitioner v. Capitol City Nursing Home, Inc., Respondents
March 5, 1986705 S.W.2d 696
Summary
The Texas Supreme Court refused the petition for a writ of error, finding no reversible error. It held that a verified motion to reinstate under Tex. R. Civ. P. 165a extends the time to perfect an appeal to ninety days, but because the motion was not verified within the required thirty days, the appellate court lacked jurisdiction and the dismissal stood.
