Magee v. Young

Texas Supreme Court

Decided December 14, 1946No. A-1021Published

1Opinion

ON REHEARING.

In his motion for rehearing petitioner insists that our orig*491inal opinion overrules Stone v. Sledge, 87 Texas 49, 26 S. W. 1068. It was not thought that it would be so construed. In our view the cases are clearly distinguishable. We expressly limited our holding to cases involving non-homestead community property. The property dealt with in the Stone-Sledge case was the separate property of the wife and her name did not appear in the body of the deed. The strict rules governing the conveyance of a- wife’s separate property are not applicable in the conveyance of community property.
