Description
This is a condemnation suit. Devco originally filed two condemnation suits to acquire an easement for a pipeline through two contiguous tracts of land owned by Murray and others. Devco later discovered that not all of the gas line was located on the described easements. Devco filed two more suits with the correct legal descriptions and moved to dismiss the first set. The trial court denied the motion to dismiss but granted Devcos motion to consolidate the proceedings. The jury awarded damages on the four suits and the trial court rendered judgment for Murray based on the jury findings. The court of appeals reversed as to the first set of condemnations. 705 S.W.2d 836. We granted writ of error to primarily consider the propriety of the court of appeals reversal in the absence of a statement of facts of the dismissal hearing. We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals.
