Description
This appeal is brought by the district clerk and sheriff of Tarrant County, Texas, appellants, from a temporary injunction entered against them by the 17th District Court. The substance of the injunction is that appellants are commanded to cease and refrain from denying Glenda Morgan, appellee, the right to be a surety on criminal bail bonds written in Tarrant County, Texas, while a certain case is being appealed from the Criminal District Court No. 1 of Tarrant County, Texas to this court. That appeal is still pending. Appellants made a motion to dismiss the request for relief based upon the provisions of Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code section 65.023 which provides a writ of injunction granted to stay proceedings in a suit or execution on a judgment must be tried in a court in which the suit is pending or the judgment was rendered. They alleged the court lacked jurisdiction to enter the injunction against them. Appellants had listed appellee in default as a bail bond surety based upon a judgment in Criminal District Court No. 1. Appellee sought her injunction in a different court. The motion to dismiss was effectively overruled when the court granted the order for temporary injunction.
