Appeal from the County Court of Tarrant. Tried below before Hon. R. F. Milam.

1Opinion of the Court

SPEER, Associate Justice.

The default judgment from which this writ of error is prosecuted must be reversed, because the writ of citation relied upon to give jurisdiction over the persons of the plaintiffs in error was fatally defective, in that the seal of the County Court of Tarrant County was not impressed thereon as required by statute.
