Court of Appeals of Texas
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
McDONALD, Chief Justice.
This is an appeal by defendant Still from $9,453.01 judgment against him and for plaintiff Liberty Leasing Co., Inc.
Plaintiff Liberty Leasing sued defendant Still on a judgment it had obtained against defendant in Illinois.
Defendant answered the Illinois judgment was void because the Illinois Court did not have jurisdiction over him; that he was never personally served with process; had no knowledge of the suit or judgment; and that rendition of the Illinois judgment was without due process of law as required by the Constitution of the United States.
