Publication Ordered July 17, 1995.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Robert W. Doggett, Legal Services of North Texas, Dallas, for appellant.

Greg T. Meyer, Dilts & Law, P.C., Dallas, Ronald D. Law, Dilts & Law, P.C., Dallas, for appellee.

Before LAGARDE, MALONEY, and JAMES, JJ.


OPINION

LAGARDE, Justice.

In this forcible detainer case, we consider whether a tenant's failure to strictly comply with the requirements of rule of civil procedure 749b(2) entitles the landlord to a final judgment awarding it possession of the premises in the absence of a trial on the merits in county court. See Tex.R.Civ.P. 749b.1 We conclude that the landlord is not so entitled.
