Description
This is a condemnation proceeding brought by the State of Texas to acquire fee simple title to a 14.9456-acre strip of land out of a 103-acre tract belonging to respondents, Frank K. Meyer and wife, Lucille R. Meyer. The award of the special commissioners in this cause was $208,192.00, from which award the respondents appealed to the county court for a jury trial. After a trial in which the respondents waived any severance damages to the remainder, the jury found the market value of the strip taken to be $1,074,199.50. Judgment was entered in favor of respondents for this amount, granting to the State the fee simple title to the land condemned exclusive of any oil, gas or sulphur thereunder. The State appealed to the Court of Civil Appeals and that Court has affirmed the judgment of the county court. 391 S.W.2d 471. We affirm the judgments of the Court of Civil Appeals and the trial court.
