Description
The question presented for our decision in this case is whether a petition filed one day late should be deemed to be timely filed when the undisputed cause of the delay was the act of a deputy district clerk. After trial to a jury, the trial court rendered judgment on the verdict dismissing Standard Fire Insurances cause for want of jurisdiction and granting Christy Jean Wand LaCoke judgment on her suit to mature the award of the Industrial Accident Board. The court of civil appeals, with one member concurring and one dissenting, affirmed. 574 S.W.2d 802. We reverse the judgments of the trial court and the court of civil appeals and remand this cause for a new trial.
