    No. 1661—6797.
    Commission of Appeals of Texas, Section B.
    Feb. 3, 1937.
    Cantey, Hanger & McMahon and J. A Gooch, all of Fort Worth, for plaintiff ir, error.
    W. M. Short and James E. Whitmore both of Fort Worth, for defendant in error.
   TAYLOR, Commissioner.

Defendant in error has filed a motion praying that the order granting the application for writ of error be set aside and the application dismissed, for the reason that it appears the court was without jurisdiction to grant the writ.

It is pointed out in the motion that it does not appear from the application that the matter therein complained of by defendant in error was* complained of in a motion for rehearing filed in the Court of Civil Appeals, or even. that such motion was filed.

It is essential to the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court to review a case of- this character for the application for the wrii of error to show that a motion for re hearing was filed in the Court of Civil Appeals presenting the points on which the writ is asked. Knodel v. Equitable Life Ins. Co. (Tex.Com.App.) 221 S.W. 941; Employers’ Cas. Co. v. Roland (Tex.Com.App.) 1 S.W.(2d) 568; Blackmon v. Trail (Tex.Com.App.) 12 S.W.(2d) 967. See also in this connection City National Bank in Childress v. Phillips Petroleum Co., 124 Tex. 456, 78 S.W.(2d) 576 and Grayce Oil Co. et al. v. Peterson et al. (Tex.Sup.) 98 S.W.(2d) 781.

Upon a re-examination of the application for the writ we find it lacking in essential grounds of jurisdiction as pointed out in the motion. It is void of allegations of any grounds, showing this court has authority to hear the case.

The writ was inadvertently granted. The order granting same is set aside and the application dismissed.

Opinion adopted by the Supreme Court.
