APPEALLANT MOTION FOR REHEARING

PRO SE FOR APPEALLANT
MOTION FOR REHEARING
COMES NOW CHARLES WADE, Appellant in this cause and moving for rehearing and
in support thereof says:
Point Relied on for Rehearing:
This Honorable First Court of Appeals should grant Appellant motion for rehearing
because the issue raised in Appellants’ appeal concern an issue of significance to the jurisprudence
of this state. Appellant raise only one issue for rehearing and this issue has been raised in this
Honorable First Court of Appeal in another case where the Supreme Court of Texas reversed the
Honorable First Court ruling and remanded back to trial court. Walker v. Blue Water Garden
Apartments, 776 S.W.2d 578 - Tex: Supreme Court 1989.
Appellant point is based on the facts that appellant file a pauperis affidavit within the
ninety day allowed to prefect an appeal if Appellant filed a timely motion for new trial which
Appellant did in this cause. (See Exhibit 1). Much like what happen in Walker Supra, this
Honorable First Court of Appeals did not address this Appellant argument that Appellant filed
Affidavit of inability to pay court cost in the Trial Court. (See 1st Court of Appeal Judgement of
June 16, 2015, also see INTRODUCTION paragraph (4) of Appellant RESPONSE TO COURT
NOTICE OF 05/14/15 AND/OR RESPONSE TO APPELLEE MOTION TO DISMISS) (Also
see Linwood v. NCNB Texas, 885 S.W.2d 102 - Tex: Supreme Court 1994).
Appellant contends that the Affidavit of inability to pay court cost, stamped filed
September 4, 2014, was filed 35 days after trial court judgement was signed on August 1, 2014,
was filed in a bona fide attempt to invoke appellate court jurisdiction.  UNITED ASS'N OF
JOURNEYMEN, ETC. v. Borden; accord Woods Exploration & Producing Co. v. Arkla Equip.
Co., 528 S.W.2d 568, 570 (Tex.1975)
2
Argument:
Appellant filed Affidavit of Inability to pay Court Cost "Forma Pauperis", on September
4, 2014, which was 35 days after trial court judgement was signed. In Lilnmod Supra, Linwood
corrected his own error 53 days afo.)r the judgment was signed by filing his cost bond.
The Court of Appeal stakd in Linwood Supra, "The court of appeals, however, has
jurisdiction over the appeal if a party files an instrument in a bona fide attempt to invoke the
appellate court's jurisdiction. Grand Prairie lndep. Sch. Dist. v. Southern Parts Imports, Inc.,
813 S.W.2d 499, 500 (Tex.1991); Walker v. Blue Water Garden Apartments, 776 S.W.2d 578,
5 81 (Tex.1989)."
Since Appellant had filed a timely motion for new trial and filed Affidavit of Inability to
pay Court cost, on September 4, 2( 14, which was 35 days after trial court judgement was signed
1
'
stated above, there is no other reas< m Appellant file Affidavit of Inability to pay Comi cost but to
invoke the appellate court's jurisdi<. tion.(See Exhibit 1).
Praver:
Appellant pray that this Honorable Court set aside the Judgement of June 16, 2015, and
allow Appellant to proceed in this . \ppeal.
Respectfully Submitted,
Charles R Wade, Pro Se
