Description
This is a forcible detainer case. The Village, Ltd. ("Village"), the landlord, sued its tenant, RCJ Liquidating Company ("RCJ"), and assignee Trish, Inc. ("Trish") in forcible detainer. The justice court rendered judgment for Village and awarded restitution of the leased premises, attorney fees of $3,500, and costs. Five days after that judgment was signed, RCJ and Trish moved for new trial. That motion was overruled the next day. Five days later, RCJ and Trish filed their appeal bond. The county court at law dismissed the appeal for want of jurisdiction on the ground that RCJ and Trish had not timely perfected their appeal. See Rule 749. RCJ and Trish appealed to the court of appeals. The court of appeals dismissed the appeal for want of jurisdiction holding that the county court at law judgment was non-reviewable. See Tex. Rev. Civ. Stat. Ann. art. 3992 (current version at Property Code § 24.007, ch. 576, § 1, 1983 Tex. Gen. Laws 3475, 3517). The court of appeals did not consider the correctness of the county court at laws holding that the appeal from the justice court was not timely perfected.
