Summary
The Texas Court of Appeals for the Second Appellate District affirmed the dismissal with prejudice of Charles Mobley’s suit against Diamond Truck Sales, Inc. under Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 91a. The court held that Mobley’s corrected pro se brief failed to identify or adequately argue any discernible appellate issue, leaving nothing for review.
Holdings
- A pro se appellant must comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure and must identify the issues or points presented and provide clear and concise arguments; when the appellant fails to do so even after receiving an opportunity to correct the deficiencies, the appeal is inadequately briefed and presents nothing for appellate review.
Questions Presented
- Whether Mobley's corrected pro se appellate brief adequately presented issues and arguments for appellate review.
- Whether the appeal should be affirmed because Mobley's inadequate briefing waived any appellate complaints and presented nothing for review.
Disposition
affirmed
