Description
Respondent, hereinafter referred to as condemnor, instituted this condemnation suit on June 21, 1951 to condemn property of petitioners, hereinafter referred to as landowners, for use as a low rent housing project. The Commissioners, appointed pursuant to statute, awarded to the landowners the sum of $2,775.00, and within the statutory period the landowners filed their objections to such award. Condemnor deposited the amount of the award with the Clerk of the Court as provided by Art. 3268, Vernons Annotated Civil Statutes of Texas, and went into possession of the property and dispossessed the landowners. Thereafter, the landowners secured an order permitting them to withdraw, and they did withdraw, the amount of the award. About a year thereafter condemnor discovered the cause still pending on the docket of the County Court-at-Law No. 1, Dallas County, Texas, and filed a motion for a summary judgment. This motion alleged the facts as above set out and further alleged that by withdrawing the award, the landowners had waived their right of appeal and to further litigate the matter. Upon a hearing the trial court gave condemnor a summary judgment. The Court of Civil Appeals has affirmed. 258 S.W.2d 428.
