Judge Cannot Bar Assumed Name Use in Texas Case
Judge G G Turles of the Forty fifth District court ruled Wednesday he cannot restrain use of an assumed name due to lack of authority under Texas law. The ruling sustained a general demurrer to Robert Beerig’s petition seeking an injunction against his stepson George Herrmann and wife Hulda Herrmann from using the names George and Hulda Seerig. Seerig had granted permission to his stepson to use the name as long as it honored the family name and alleged breach. Judge Tayloe allowed examination of authorities to search for grounds to proceed.
