On Motion for Rehearing.
Action on the motion for rehearing has been withheld pending a decision of the Supreme Court in the case of Employers’ Casualty Company v. Rockwall County, 35 S.W. (2d) 690, in' which case the Court of Civil Appeals (300 S. W. 148) had held that claimants or creditors intervening in a statutory suit on a public contract bond need not obtain service of citation of the filing of the claim or plea of intervention on the bond principals and sureties. We made the same holding in the instant case. The Supreme Court did not find it necessary to pass upon the specific question raised; but it did not disturb the decision of the Court of Civil Appeals on the question. Our view upon the question has not changed,, and the motion will be overruled.
Motion overruled.
