Massachusetts Newton Buying Corp. v. Huber
Court of Appeals of Texas
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
CANNON, Justice.
Massachusetts Newton Buying Corporation, doing business as T.J. Maxx No. 275, brings this writ of error to attack the default judgment entered by the trial court in the action brought by Sholeh Huber on her own behalf and as the next friend of her two minor children. The appellant contends that the trial court erred because it lacked jurisdiction to enter the default judgment. We find that the appellees did not obtain proper service of citation on the appellant. The trial court did not have in personam jurisdiction. We reverse the default judgment and remand.
