This morning, the Texas Supreme Court handed down opinions in six cases; none had anything to do with arbitration.
In an opinion on interlocutory appeal of an order certifying a class, Citizens Ins. Co. of America, et al. v. Daccach, et al., the Court decertified a class and remanded the case to the trial court. The case is a potential class action involving alleged violations of the Texas Securities Act.
Moki Mac River Expeditions v. Drugg involves a discussion of specific personal jurisdiction in Texas.
City of Galveston v. State of Texas marks the first time, according to the Court, that the State of Texas has sued one of its cities for money damages. Can it do that? You’ll have to read the opinion.
The other three opinions are short and per curiam, and involve issues relating to writs of executions based on default judgments, the segregation of unrecoverable attorneys’ fees from recoverable attorneys’ fees, and preservation of error. We’re mighty busy around here, so I’m afraid I can’t tell you any more.
