Court Ruling Kills Bexar Stock Law
A Texas court opinion by Judge Tom L Beaushhamp of the Court of Criminal Appeals voids the 1934 stock law election in Bexar County. Frank Daune of Hallandale challenged the law’s passage and the November 14 1984 election timing, arguing improper procedure. A jury ruled against Daune and he appealed, with no other stock law matters on file.
