Court | Texas Supreme Court |
Gregg & Gardner, for appellant. Thos. B. Greenwood & Son, for appellee.
The court of civil appeals for the First supreme judicial district has certified to this court the following statement and questions: .

Ledbetter, 56 Tex. 282; Railway Co. v. Faber, 77 Tex. 153, 8 S. W. 64; Bomar v. Parker, 68 Tex. 435, 4 S. W. 599. In Railway Co. v. Faber, cited above, the court said: "Upon a second or other subsequent appeal this court adheres to its former rulings, unless clearly erroneous." The question as to whether the court will reconsider, upon a second appeal, what it has formerly decided in the same case, must always be addressed to the discretion of the court, and determined according to the particular circumstances of that case.
