Texas Supreme Court Resets Oral Argument in Northwest Texas Case

Texas Supreme Court Resets Oral Argument in Northwest Texas Case

On June 22, 2012 the Texas Supreme Court reset the oral argument in the Masterson case, which is the appeal by a breakaway faction seeking to overturn the judgment in favor of the Episcopal Diocese of Northwest Texas and the loyal Episcopalians at Good Shepherd Episcopal Church in San Angelo.

The argument will be heard on Tuesday, October 16, 2012 at the 9:00 a.m. docket in the Supreme Court Building in Austin.

This case had been set for oral argument on February 29 but was continued due to illness of the breakaway appellants’ attorney.

The link to the Court’s weekly order is: www.supreme.courts.state.tx.us/historical/2012/jun/062212.htm. The Masterson case is number 11‑0332.

The Supreme Court has not yet set the Fort Worth case for oral argument.
