Judgment was rendered in the trial court on January 10th, 1944.

Under the rules obtaining in the County of Tarrant, where there are four District Courts having jurisdiction over civil cases, the motion for a new trial should be filed within ten (10) days after judgment is rendered. The original motion was filed on January 14, 1944, and the defendants attempted to amend such original motion by filing the amended motion on February 14, 1944.
