On Motion for Rehearing
Appellant states that we are in error in stating that he took the position that the Statutes and Rules of which the Court was asked to judicially notice form no part of the record in a summary judgment proceeding and should not have been looked to by the Court in granting summary judgment, however, he “concedes that the Court’s statement is true.”
We quote from appellant’s brief:
“Now the Court’s attention is invited to the contents of Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment in which Plaintiff — for the FIRST TIME brings forth the defense:
a. That under Wyoming Law Defendant was barred by limitations; (Para. I, Tr. 21)
b. That Defendant is barred now because he could have brought the matter up on Colorado (Para. II, Tr. 22)
c. That Defendant is precluded by the laws of Colorado from bringing the matter up now. (Para. Ill, Tr. 23)
d. Para. IV, (Tr. 23 and 24) constitutes a denial of Defendant’s allegations and an argument of law.
Defendant first of all says that the Court below wholly refusing to heed the law of Texas used the above in determining its judgment. The above forms no part of the record in this case for the purpose of Summary Judgment.”
This is the language which misled us. We fully accept appellant’s statement that he did not take the position which we attributed to him.
The motion is overruled.
