Description
This is an eminent domain proceeding instituted in the County Court of Travis County by the State of Texas, petitioner here, to take by condemnation certain property in the City of Austin belonging to respondents. The right of the State to take the property subject to its obligation to pay damages for the taking was admitted and trial to a jury was therefore limited to the sole issue of damages. Upon the special issue verdict of the jury, the State was by final judgment of the County Court, awarded the land sought to be condemned; the respondents were adjudged to have and recover as their damages the sum of $33,000.00 which the jury found to be the cash market value of the lands on November 5, 1956. On appeal the Court of Civil Appeals sustained respondents, Parrish et al, assignments of error complaining of the action of the trial court in limiting respondents in their cross-examination of the petitioners witness, Harold Legge, and reversed and remanded the cause. 310 S.W.2d 709.
