The Texas safety appliance act is effectively nullified after the Supreme Court refused a writ of error in the Texas against Orange & Northwestern railway case. The Texas statute was ruled superseded by the federal safety appliance law, leaving enforcement to federal standards. The Third Civil Appeals Court agreed with the lower court, and no opinion was issued on the writ refusal. It is unlikely the state will seek a rehearing.
