Texas Supreme Court

In Re Pervez Daredia, Relator

July 2, 201053 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 983

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the default judgment, which expressly stated it disposed of all parties and claims and was final, was indeed a final judgment despite not addressing Daredia's claim, and therefore the trial court lacked plenary power to modify it nunc pro tunc. The Court granted mandamus to vacate the trial court's nunc pro tunc order and the default judgment.
