Excerpt from Texas Civil Form Book: With Forms of Pleadings, Removal of Causes From State to Federal Courts, the Forms and Law of Bankruptcy of 1898 and Amendments Approved February 5, 1903, and Court Rules of Texas In submitting this work to the legal profession of Texas, I trust it will meet with such favor as it may merit. Neither time nor labor has been spared in the endeavor to prepare a work which will be of great benefit and convenience to the profession. A correct and complete form book is a valuable addition to any library in Texas. Just such a work the writer has endeavored to prepare. There are two classes of the legal profession who may not be benefited by such a work - the lawyer who knows too much law to even refer to a form book, and the one who depends upon it entirely. These are the two extremes in the legal profession. The writer does not claim perfection for this Work, but such mistakes as it may contain, it is trusted, will be of minor importance. The writer has endeavored to follow substantially the forms laid down in the statutes of this State and other standard works, with such additional forms as have never been published in any work. He has endeavored to embrace most of the practical civil forms for Texas. Under each form is given the article of the statute with the law, and such comments as were deemed most helpful and necessary. This work contains more forms than is now contained in any other civil form book of Texas. In pleadings, it contains only such forms as the writer deemed most helpful to the practitioner. An effort has been made to cover all civil forms which may arise during the trial of a cause in the justice's court to the Court of Civil Appeals and the Supreme Court. It contains the form for removal of a cause from the State to the Federal Court and the law and forms in bankruptcy of 1898, and amendment approved February 5, 1903, together with the late court rules of Texas. No attempt has been made, with but a few exceptions, to cite any authorities in this work. This book is entitled "The Texas Civil Form Book." Trusting the same may prove beneficial and helpful, I submit it to the legal profession of Texas. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
