Texas Supreme Court
Georgette Speer and the Texas Commission on Human Rights, Petitioners v. Presbyterian Children’s Home and Service…
February 3, 199336 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 511
Summary
The Texas Supreme Court dismissed the appeal as moot because the Presbyterian Children’s Home and Service Agency had ceased offering adoption services and eliminated the senior adoption worker position, leaving no live controversy for injunctive or declaratory relief. The Court vacated the lower courts' judgments and dismissed the case, despite dissenting arguments that the case remained live for attorney's fees and public interest reasons.
