Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Texas

What is a 'conclusion of law' fo a brief

I am Pro Se, and have started my brief. I know that I have to include facts of law, the pleadings.

I am uncertain what is appropriate as 'conclusions of law'.

Is that , in a probate action, the probate code that applies to the plea?

And, criminal statutes that are being violated ?

Or, is the conclusion of law something else?

Re: What is a 'conclusion of law' fo a brief

My Opinion - you're already in way over your head. Not many attorneys can handle appeals and the rules of appellate procedure. They are complicated and the court historically isn't helpful to pro se litigants. They won't even answer my questions some times.

I've only done a handful of appeals in my almost 7 years as an attorney, and it was always very difficult.

Consult with several appellate attorneys and if you have a good change to win, do whatever you have to do(legally) to pay for it.

Doing an appeal pro se is almost like removing you own gal bladder. I guess you could do it, but at the very best you'll come out with some big scars.
