x Pierce v. Watkins, 263 S.W. 905 (Tex. 1924) ("Chapter 105, General Laws of the Thirty Eighth Legislature, under its terms and under the well-recognized rules of law is not a special or local law. Its introductory paragraph provides: . . . . It is not asserted that the classification in this instance is a fictitious one. That it is a bona fide classification, based upon facts and real conditions, is apparent in its terms, and supported by the fact that it applies and is operative over a number of civil district courts in many of the large counties of the state. The law is a valid exercise of legislative authority, and well designed to have a wholesome effect upon the dispatch and finality of litigation in the courts in our congested centers. Legislative prerogative has always extended to fixing the time when judgments become final and the time when the necessary steps in the procedure must be taken.")
