Pleasant Homes, Inc. v. Allied Bank of Dallas

The application for writ of error of petitioners, Pleasant Homes, Inc. and Ray J. Stockman, is denied, as the default judgment was properly reversed on other grounds. In so doing, however, the majority of the court disapproves of the court of appeals’ conclusion that a default judgment against a bank could not stand because the record on appeal did not affirmatively show that the individual at the bank, who was served with process in accordance with Texas Revised Civil Statutes article 342-915 (1989), was in fact the bank’s vice-president, cashier, or agent for service. 757 S.W.2d 460, 462-63.
