Dissenting opinion should be mentioned[edit]
It should be respected that there are dissenting opinions: Cit.: I was recently asked: "What is a memorandum opinion?" The question arose from a misunderstanding and argument that memorandum opinions were not precedent or published. I think the basis for this misunderstanding arises from the old Texas appellate rules where the Texas Appellate Courts were to designate their opinions as "publish" or "do not publish." These opinions that were designated "do not publish" were not to be cited as precedent. However, as part of the 2003 amendments to the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, this rule (old Tex. R. App. P. 90(c)) was repealed and replaced by Tex. R. App. P. 47. This new rule governs cases issued on or after January 1, 2003, and states that both opinions and memorandum opinions "shall not be designated do not publish" and are "open to the public and must be made available to public reporting services, print or electronic."
