Ward v. Parham

Chris Ward appeals from the dismissal of his lawsuit against Robert G. Parham, M.D., George R. Hunter, M.D., and Urology Associates. The order dismissing the cause, with prejudice, was signed by the trial court December 6, 2005. On March 22, 2006, Ward filed a motion for a nunc pro tunc order to correct a clerical mistake in the dismissal: that he did not intend to dismiss all parties, but only one of the defendants. On April 3, Ward filed a motion referencing Rule 306a, subd. 4, of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure in which he asked the court to modify the order dated December 6, 2005. See Tex. R. Civ. P. 306a, subd. 4. The trial court denied both motions in separate orders, both dated June 20, 2006. Ward filed a notice of appeal specifically stating that it was from the June 20 order denying his motion pursuant to Rule 306a, subd. 4.
