Description
This case requires us to decide whether a cause of action under Tex.Rev.Civ.Stat.Ann. art. 3827 (Vernon 1980), commonly called the "turnover" statute, can be brought against one who is not a judgment debtor. Appellant brought suit against C. Benton Musslewhite and James W. Grafton, against whom they had obtained judgments for money damages, seeking various relief including injunction, receivership and turnover of assets. Appellants also sued Plains Overseas Group, Inc., (POGI) and Plains Overseas Export, Inc., (POEI) seeking the same relief under the turnover statute asserting that both corporations were alter egos of Musslewhite and Grafton and were being used to conceal and transfer fraudulently the assets of the individual judgment debtors, Musslewhite and Grafton. Neither POGI or POEI were judgment debtors of the appellant, nor had they been parties to the prior litigation with appellant.
