James F. BLAND, Indi v. dually and as Independent Executor, Petitioner,

PER CURIAM.

The opinion of the Court of Civil Appeals, reported in 337 S.W.2d 805, followed our holding in the case of Ricks v. Smith, 1958, 159 Tex. 280, 318 S.W.2d 439.

Our action on this application for writ of error was held in abeyance until the case of Hilley v. Hilley should be decided because that case would determine our holding in this cause. Prior to our action on this application for writ of error we decided the case of Hilley v. Hilley, 342 S.W.2d 565, in which the case of Ricks v. Smith was overruled. The decision of the Court of Civil Appeals in the present case is in conflict with our opinion in the Hilley case.

Under the discretion given us by Rule 483, Texas Rules of Civil Procedure, we reverse the judgment of the Court of Civil Appeals in this case and affirm the judgment of the trial court.
