Description
This is an appeal from a judgment rendered against appellant, N. S. Liddell, by the District Court of Cameron County, Texas, in a suit upon a joint and several California judgment against Liddell and Raymond Lee Childress. The case was tried without a jury. Appellant here contends that the Superior Court of Contra Costa County never obtained jurisdiction over his person under its statutes providing for substituted service upon non-resident owners of motor vehicles, because (1) the notice provisions of the California statute were not complied with, (2) the judgment was rendered nunc pro tunc without notice to appellant, and (3) the California statutes are unconstitutional since they authorize service upon non-residents in "all actions," both criminal and civil, and that the statutes are therefore unconstitutional as to criminal actions. We overrule each of these points and affirm the judgment.
