Lee v. Purvin
Court of Appeals of Texas
1Opinion of the Court
HALE, Justice.
Ralph Lee, appellant, brought this action in the Juvenile Court of Dallas County as the petitioner in a Bill of Review to set aside a prior judgment of adoption rendered in that court on December 22, 1952. By the term of the adoption judgment, Robert L. Purvin, hereafter referred to as ap-pellee, was granted leave to adopt the two minor sons of appellant without the latter’s knowledge or consent. Trial before the Court without a jury on the Bill of Review resulted in judgment confirming the former decree of adoption and denying any relief to appellant.
