Texas Supreme Court

Gene A. Shumway and Sandra Shumway, Petitioners v. Horizon Credit Corporation, Respondent

January 16, 19911991 Tex. LEXIS 5

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the Shumways waived presentment and notice of acceleration under their promissory note, but did not waive notice of the holder's intent to accelerate; therefore the summary judgment was reversed and the case remanded. Justice Mauzy concurred, arguing that such waivers are void as against public policy.
