Summary
The Texas Supreme Court held that the gradient boundary of the Canadian River must be determined using present‑day (post‑dam) conditions, rejecting the State’s artificial‑change theory, and therefore affirmed the Landowners’ survey as the correct boundary. The Court also affirmed that Senate Concurrent Resolution 165 bars recovery of attorney’s and surveyor’s fees, reversing the trial court’s fee award.
